Refer to Figure 7.24. The following data were collected during the field permeability measurement of a confined aquifer using a pumping test. Determine the hydraulic conductivity of the permeable layer. Use Eq. (7.49). Thickness of the aquifer, H = 4.5 m Piezometric level and radial distance of the first observation well: h1 = 2.9 m; r1 = 17.8 m Piezometric level and radial distance of the second observation well: h2 = 1.8 m; r2 = 8.1 m Rate of discharge from pumping, q = 0.5 m3/min

Water content is proportional? A- inversely with hydraulic conductivity. B-directly with soil suction head. C- directly with hydraulic conductivity and inversely with matrix potential head. D- directly with matrix potential head and inversely with hydraulic conductivity. What is the correct answer above??
The direction of groundwater flow and general direction groundwater may carry contamination cannot be determined using two wells (two groundwater level or piezometric surface measurements). Why? One of the following option is correct. a) Darcy's law requires more than two points. b) Groundwater energy surface is in 2-D. The characteristics of a 2-D surface must be defined by more than 2 points (at least 3). c) Since one well will show higher energy than another, a third well is needed to confirm that the flow direction is between the two wells. d) The premise of the question is not correct. The energy gradient can be estimated from two points and flow direction can be estimated as long as the distance between the two points is known. Fick's law requires more than two points
The hydraulic conductivity of a homogeneous gravelly aquifer is 3 x 10-1 cm/sec. The hydraulic gradient (groundwater surface slope) of the phreatic (water table) aquifer is 0.01 and the aquifer's effective porosity is 0.25. Calculate the following two parameters and provide the answer to question b) in the space provided (numerical answer only, no units or any). Calculate the specific discharge that represents flow conditions of the aquifer in cm/sec. Also Calculate the approximate average velocity of a conservative solute dissolved in this aquifer, calculated to units of cm/sec (enter numerical answer without stating units).
The hydraulic conductivity (K) of a homogeneous sandy clay mix aquifer is 2x10-3 cm/sec.
