A well is constructed to pump water from a confined aquifer. Two observation wells, MW1 and MW2, are constructed at distances of 10 m and 100 m, respectively. Water is pumped from the pumping well at a rate of 0.8 m³/min. At steady state, drawdown is observed as 5 m in MW2 and 19 m in MW1. Note that drawdown is greater for well MW1 located closest to the pumping well. Determine the Transmissivity (cm²/s) if the aquifer is 40 m thick. (Please enter your answers with 2 decimals)

The flow net constructed for a dam is shown in the figure below. Taking coefficient of permeability as 3.8 x 10-6 m/s, the quantity of flow (in cm3/ sec) under the dam per m is 50m 6.3m |1.6m :4 9.4m 17.2m Impermeable stratum
A confined aquifer with T = 7.0 x 10-3 m2/s and S = 5 x 10-4 is pumped by two wells, 35 m apart. One well is pumped at 7.6 L/s and one at 15.2 L/s. Plot the drawdown h0-h versus distance along a line joining the wells, 4 hours after the start of pumping. Use 5 m increments along the line. How would I go about this question if my initial r1 would equal 0 and and r2 would equal 35m additionally how would I get the pumping rates at each 5 m increments. overall please give a step by step on how I Would go about this question
2. You're designing a stilling basin and you need to know the minimum length of that basin and also how much energy loss will be achieved before flow is released into the downstream channel. Given the basin width is 10-feet, the flow rate is 240 CFS, the upstream froude number is found from hydraulic modeling to be 4.0. Solve the following: • Minimum length of the stilling basin. • Energy loss within the stilling basin (Calculate both energy loss in feet and in tons). • The depth of water being released outside of the stilling basin. • The Froude Number being released from the Stilling Basin. • Look at USBR Design of Small Dams and Write a paragraph (4-5 sentences) of the recommended stilling basin you would propose for the hydraulic scenario.
