Unit Conversion

Standard units are also called SI units. SI units are used for measuring a physical quantity satisfying certain conditions. There are two types of units: fundamental units and derived units. Fundamental units are physical quantities that are independent, that is, they do not depend on other quantities like mass, length, or time. There are plenty of quantities in our lives which need to be measured and compared. Measuring is the comparison of a particular physical quantity with its reference value. A unit is a measure of a fixed physical quantity. A physical quantity is the product of a unit and the numerical value we need to compare with.

A dam releases water into a spillway, and then some distance downstream a hydraulic jump occurs. The dam height is 25 m, the initial depth in the spillway is 1 m, and the hydraulic jump leads to a region of depth 15 m. Upstream of the dam may be considered a reservoir. Determine the average velocity before the jump and whether the jump will occur. If there will be a jump, determine the velocity after the hydraulic jump, neglecting any friction losses.
