Question 48

CENAT2 marksNeeds review
A sluice gate used to control the flow in a horizontal channel of unit width is shown in the figure.
Diagram for Civil Engineering question 48

It is observed that the depth of flow is 1.0 m upstream of the gate, while the depth is 0.2 m downstream of the gate. Assuming a smooth flow transition across the sluice gate, i.e., without any energy loss, and the acceleration due to gravity as 10 m/s

, the discharge (in m

/s, up to two decimal places) passing under the sluice gate is
