Water is seeping through an inclined aquifer as shown in Figure 1. Two standpipes are installed at the mid-depth of the aquifer at Points x and y. The water rises 3.9m up the tube at Point x and 4.1 m at Point y. The permeability of the aquifer soil is 10-5m/s. What is the rate of flow in the aquifer in m^3/s per meter run of the aquifer ?
