Calculate the daily flow in (m³/d) using Darcy's law for a confined aquifer with a hydraulic conductivity of 1.9 (m/d), a thickness of 50 (m) which is 5 (km) wide. Two observation wells are located 1.8 (km) apart in the direction of flow and the head in well 1 is 105 (m) and in well 2 is 95 (m). (Please enter your answer with one decimal)

Groundwater Flow

The term groundwater refers to the water which is found beneath the earth's surface. Pores present in the soil and rocks with fractures make a passage for rainwater to enter the earth's surface and deposit as groundwater. The flow nature and direction of groundwater under the earth's surface directly impacts the strength and compressibility of the soil, which reflects its ability to support structural loads.
