Could you help me answer the following question? Thank you A fully penetrating pumping well extracts groundwater from a confined aquifer with a pumping rate of 750 m3/day. The hydraulic conductivity of the aquifer is 10 m/day and the saturated thickness is 50 m. The drawdown of the aquifer from this pumping well is insignificant at a distance of 1000 m from the pumping well. At what distance from the pumping well is the drawdown 10 cm? Assume the hydraulic gradient is negligible in the local area. Transmissivity T = 1746.76 gal/min/ft Hydraulic conductivity = 11.645 gal/min/ft2 Storativity = 0.809 The drawdown on Jenny’s Well by the end of August. =0.6902 ft. Observation well situated is 69.7 ft away from the pumping well (which is pumping at the rate of 305 gal/min). The aquifer is confined, and the depth has been measured from well logs and is 150 ft. The data for time (t) and drawdown (s) is given below:

Transmissivity T = 1746.76 gal/min/ft
Hydraulic conductivity = 11.645 gal/min/ft2
Storativity = 0.809
The drawdown on Jenny’s Well by the end of August.
=0.6902 ft.
Observation well situated is 69.7 ft away from the pumping well (which is pumping at the rate of 305 gal/min). The aquifer is confined, and the depth has been measured from well logs and is 150 ft. The data for time (t) and drawdown (s) is given below:
