A well having a diameter of 0.50 m and dug in an unconfined aquifer is. being pumped and  is delivering 0.025 m³/s. The depth of water in the well is now 50 m that was 60 m when  pumping was started. Two observation wells are installed at 7.5 m and 15.0 m distances  from centerline of well being pumped. The water level in the well being 7.5 m from  centerline of well is at depth of 55 m. Find the depth in the second observation well?
