A hydraulic jump takes place in a frictionless rectangular channel. The pre-jump depth is $y_{p}$. The alternate and sequent depths corresponding to $y_{p}$ are $y_{a}$ and $y_{s}$ respectively. The correct relationship among $y_{p}, y_{a}$ and $y_{s}$ is:
(A) $y_{a}<y_{s}<y_{p}$
(B) $y_{p}<y_{s}<y_{a}$
(C) $y_{p}<y_{s}=y_{a}$
(D) $y_{p}=y_{s}=y_{a}$
