A rectangular channel 3.0 m wide has a flow rate of 5.0 m3/s with a normal depth of 0.50 m. The flow then encounters a dam that rises 0.25 m above the channel bottom. Will a hydraulic jump occur?

The hydraulic will jump since the flow is subcritical ( i.e. Y2 > Yc )

Explanation:

width of channel = 3.0 m

Flow rate = 5 m^3/s

Normal depth = 0.50 m

Flow encounters a dam rise of 0.25 m

To know if the hydraulic jump will occur

we will Determine the new normal depth

Y2 = 3.77m

Yc ( critical depth )= 0.66m

Attached below is the detailed solution

the equation above shows how temperature f, measured in degrees fahrenheit, relates to a temperature c, measured in degrees celsius. based on the equation, which of the following must be true?
