SIT H. A 300 mm diameter well penetrates 27 m below the static water table. After 24 hours of pumping at 96 L/s, the water level in an observation well at a distance of 95 m from the test well is lowered 0.50 m and the other observation well at a distance of 35 m from the test well, the drawdown is 1.10 m. a. What is the rate of flow in m³/day. b. Compute the coefficient of permeability of the aquifer in m/day. c. Compute the transmissivity of the aquifer in m²/day.
