A rectangular channel carries a discharge of 2.00 m3/sec per meter of channel width over a weir

Question:

A rectangular channel carries a discharge of 2.00 m3/sec per meter of channel width over a weir crest that is 1.40 min height. The energy grade line upstream of the weir measures 2.70 m above the channel bottom. Determine the true coefficient of discharge in the weir equation, considering the energy losses. Also determine the amount of the energy loss in meters.
