@All.

I did option verification here. Here asked for critical depth, whose units should be metres, right?
and also mentioned that q = unit discharge, that is discharge per unit width, so the units of q become, m^2/s, now see the options, the denominator is g, i.e m/s^2, now check the options, whose dimensions should be a metre (m), option B units are metres.
