Q₂: A) At the beginning of a given day a reservoir has a surface area 30 Km². The inflow to the reservoir during the day was measured to be 80m/s and the reservoir outflow was measured as 15m/s. In addition, the day was dry and the seepage is 10% of the inflow. Assume the area of the reservoir does not change significantly by the end of the day. Determine the reservoir evaporation in mm/day where the reservoirs level is decreased 2 cm?

A pumping well extracts water at a rate of 0.94 ML/d from an unconfined, homogeneous aquifer of hydraulic conductivity 13.8 m/d. An observation well at 247.8 m from the well has a steady-state water level of 252.4 m AHD. The base of the aquifer is 174.3 m AHD. Ignoring any rainfall recharge, what would be the watertable elevation at the edge of the well, assuming the well is 161 mm in diameter?
Estimate the constant rate of withdrawal from a 1375 ha reservoir in a month of 30 days during which thereservoir level dropped by 0.75 m in spite of an average inflow into the reservoir of 0.5 Mm^3/day. During themonth, the average seepage loss from the reservoir was 2.5 cm, total precipitation on the reservoir was 18.5 cmand the total evaporation was 9.5 cm.
Estimate the constant rate of withdrawal from a 1375 ha reservoir in a month of 30 days during which the reservoir level dropped by 0.75 m in spite of an average inflow into the reservoir of 500,000 m 3 /day.

Measurements of a water-balance have been made for 1 year period on a lake with an area of 0.9 km2 with the following results: P = 1500 mm, Qsi = 0.16 m3s-1 and Qso = 0.18 m3s-1. At the end of the year, the lake surface elevation was 40 mm lower than at the beginning. Estimate the lake evaporation (in mm) for that year?

A small shallow reservoir has a surface area of 150 square meters is used to estimate the average daily evaporation. The average values of climate parameters during a week are the following: water temperature is 34 degrees Celsuis, relative humidity of 0.3, wind velocity at 1.0 meter above ground surface is 4.444 m/s. Use the Meyer's formula to get the average daily evaporation. Also, compute the total volume of water lost due to evaporation daily.
