1.0 QUESTION

1. Verify the force of the stream on either side of the jump is the same and that the
specific energy curve predicts a loss equal to ΔH / dc.
Fbefore = Fafter

2. Suggest application where the loss of energy in hydraulic jump would be desirable.
How is the energy dissipated?

The hydraulic jump flow process can be illustrated by use of the specific energy
concept. Equation loss energy can be written in term of the specific energy:

E = yo+ V2/ 2g
