The percentage of energy dissipation in a hydraulic jump increases with the increase in the Froude number.

The percentage of energy dissipation in a hydraulic jump increases with the increase in the Froude number. Correct Answer True

The energy dissipation in the jump depends upon the Froude number, if this Froude number is higher, the greater energy dissipation can take place. S NO. Froude number % loss in energy 1. 2.5 17 2. 4.5 45 3. 9.0 70

Which of the following statements are true with regard to energy dissipation below a dam? (i) If the upper conjugate depth of a hydraulic jump is below the tailwater, little energy will be dissipated (ii) An upturned bucket will protect the dam from scour by moving material toward the dam. (iii) A secondary dam may increase tailwater height, thereby causing a hydraulic jump to form at the toe of the main dam. (v) A slopping apron above streambed level may be used to control the hydraulic jump so that it occurs on the apron. 
Which of the following assumptions is/are made in the analysis of hydraulic jump? 1. It is assumed that before and after jump formation the flow is essentially two-dimensional and that the pressure distribution is hydrostatic. 2. The length of the jump is small so that the losses due to friction on the channel floor are small and hence neglected. 3. The channel floor is horizontal or the slope is so gentle that the weight component of the water mass comprising the jump is very high.
If the measured Froude number for a hydraulic jump is 10, which type of jump is it?

Rita has the longest jump of 3 m 40 cm. Tanu is second. Her jump is 20 cm less than Rita's. Rihanna comes third. Her jump is only 5 cm less than Tanu's jump. By how many centimetres Rihana could not secure the first rank?
Consider the atomic jump. An atom next to a vacancy can make a jump provided it has enough thermal energy to overcome the activation energy barrier to migration. However, most of the time the adjacent site will not be vacant and the jump will not be possible. The probability that an adjacent site is vacant is given by_________. (X is the probability that any one site is vacant, z is the number of nearest neighbours)
