  1. There is a free overfall at the end of a long open channel. For a given flow rate, the critical depth is less than the normal depth. What gradually varied flow profile will occur in the channel for this flow rate?
    1. M1
    2. M2
    3. M3
    4. S1
Correct Option: B

yn > yc
∴ Mild slope For free flow at end of long channel on mild slope, there is draw down and depth decreases from yn to yc and not below yc.
∴ yn > y > yc.
