Steep is the correct answer.

Yes steep should be the correct answer as critical depth is higher than normal depth.
Type of slope ----- Relation
Mild ----- Yn>Yc
Steep ----- Yn<Yc
critical ----- Yn=Yc
Adverse ----- Slope<0
Horizontal ----- Slope=0.
Where Yn & Yc are normal and critical depth.

It should be Steep.

Yc = ((q^2/g))^(1/3) q=Q/B, q=1/1=1.
Yc = ((1 /9.81))^(1/3).
Yc = 0.467m.
Given Yn = 250mm = 0.25m.
Condition when, yc>yn(steep slope).
So, the answer is option B.
Yc = ((1 /9.81))^(1/3).
Yc = 0.467m.
Given Yn = 250mm = 0.25m.
Condition when, yc>yn(steep slope).
So, the answer is option B.

Calculate the slope of bed if it's less than zero it's adverse.

How to calculate the bed slope? Please explain.

How to find yn when S is not known? 0.25m is not yn, right? Anyone, please explain in detail.

Effective depth D = B/2.
B = 1000mm.
Then, D = 1000/2 = 500>250mm.
Hence it's harmful and acting towards Conflict, means Adverse. So it's the right answer.
