Question

A steep triangular hillside drainage ditch carries 0.06 m/sec to the bottom where the slope abruptly transitions to nearly horizontal. If the depth y at the end of the slope is 0.1 m and using the hydraulic jump reference from the course handouts, sketch the channel cross-section and profile and calculate the minimum safe side wall distance x (i.e. length of diagonal).
