A hydraulic jump is formed in a 5 m wide rectangular channel, which has a horizontal bed and is carrying a discharge of 15 m3/s. The depth of water upstream of the jump is 0.5 m. The power dissipated by the jump (in kW) is ______ (rounded off to the nearest integer).
Note:
Acceleration due to gravity =9.81 m/s2
Density of water =1000 kg/m3
Kinetic energy correction factor =1.0

Correct : 120
