Given:

velocity of flow = 0.0375 m/s

coefficient =0.05 m/s

porosity p =48%

slope S = 3/4

  1. The soil porosity in the area where the 46-cm diameter well is 48%, find the discharge of the groundwater.
  2. Given the discharge Q get in Question #1, transmissibility T in Question#2, slope S = 3/4; find the aquifer width X.
