Question 1 a) Explain using the concept of depth changes and specific energy why Bernoulli's equation cannot be used to derive the Hydraulic Jump formula. (10) b) Derive the Hydraulic Jurnp formula starting with the conservation of momentum that states Net Pressure Force is equal to Change in Mornentum using discharge per unit width i.e. /,9Y1 = P9(it — V2) where location 1 is upstream of the jurnp and location 2 is downstream.

A pin-ended chord of a truss is treated as a member in a braced frame. Its length is 12 ft. It must carry a tension dead load of 95 kips and live load of 180 kips along with a uniformly distributed transverse dead load of 1.2 kips/ft and live load of 2.3 kips/ft. Will a W8x67, A992 member be adequate if the transverse load is applied to put the bending about the strong axis? Determine by (a) LRFD and (b) ASD. [8.14- 12-Tension]

Vehicles arrive at a signalized intersection at a uniform rate of 900 veh/hr. The saturation flow rate for the intersection is 1200 veh/hr. However, a crash has reduced the saturation flow rate to only 300 veh/hr for a one-hour period. Assuming D/D/1 queuing, determine:
a. How long will it take for the resulting queue to clear? (6 points)
b. How much delay is experienced as compared to if the saturation flow rate had NOT been reduced? (6 points)
c. What is the average delay per vehicle during the period over which queuing occurs? (4 points)
d. What is the average queue length during the period over which queuing occurs? (4 points)
