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?
