The thickness of a horizontal, confined, homogeneous, isotropic aquifer of infinite areal extent is 30m. A well fully penetrating the aquifer was continuously pumped at a constant rate of 0.1 m³/s for a period of 1 day. The drawdowns given in the table below were observed in a fully penetrating well 90 m from the pumping well. Compute the transmissivity and the storativity by using: a) the Theis method of log-log matching. b) the Cooper-Jacob method of semi-log plotting. [For Part a), you have to first use attached Table to plot the values of W(u) versus 1/u on a log-log graph in the range of 10-9
Question 1: * A 300 mm diameter test well penetrates a 27 m thick sand layer below the static water table.

At another test well located 50 m from the test well, the water level dropped by 1.0 m. Estimate the rate of flow in cubic meters per day. Evaluate the coefficient of permeability of the aquifer in meters per day.
