Problem 2. A well is located in a completely confined aquifer with a hydraulic conductivity of 12 m/d and a storativity of 0.0064. The aquifer is 20 m thick and the well is pumped at a rate of 2000 m/d. (1) Calçulate the drawdown at a distance of 9 m from the well after 9 days of pumping. (2) If the above pumping well has a radius of 0.3 meter, and the observed drawdown in the pumping well after 6 days of pumping is 20 meters. Find the efficiency of the well.

Problem 2. A well is located in a completely confined aquifer with a hydraulic
conductivity of 12 m/d and a storativity of 0.0064. The aquifer is 20 m thick and the well
is pumped at a rate of 2000 m/d.
(1) Calçulate the drawdown at a distance of 9 m from the well after 9 days of pumping.
(2) If the above pumping well has a radius of 0.3 meter, and the observed drawdown in
the pumping well after 6 days of pumping is 20 meters. Find the efficiency of the well.
