A 5-m wide rectangular channel with two reaches, each with a different slope, conveys 80 m3/s of water. The channel slope for the first reach is 0.01 and then a sudden change to a slope of 0.001. The Manning’s n for the channel is 0.015. Does a hydraulic jump occur in the channel? If there is a hydraulic jump, where does it occur: on the first reach or the second reach?
