A sluice gate is located in a 6.0-ft-wide rectangular channel as shown in Figure P13.32. The difference in the water level just before and after the gate is 4.8 ft. Concrete blocks are placed on the bed to

form a hydraulic jump. Determine the force acting on the blocks if the upstream depth of the jump is 1.2 ft. Use a contraction coefficient for the gate of 0.60.
