Water is being pumped at a steady rate of 500 gpm from a 12in diameter well. Thewell draws water from an unconfined aquifer. The height of water in the aquifer in the equilibrium statebefore pumping is 100ft, and the drawdown at the well at steady state pumping is 40ft. The hydraulicconductivity of the aquifer determined from a pump test is 0.02ft/min. Determine the radius of influence.
