Q2 A very wide concrete overflow spillway, with rectangular cross-section, is 100m long and has a longitudinal slope of 0.01. The spillway carries a discharge per unit width q of 5.0m³/s/m and has a Manning's "n" value of 0.014. Assuming critical flow conditions occur at the spillway's crest, quantitatively determine the gradually varying flow profile along the spillway using the Direct Step method with depth increments of 0.3m (starting from the crest and moving downstream, for a total of 3 steps).
