$6\mathrm{.}4\mathrm{.}6$ Three pumping wells along a straight line are spaced $200$ m apart. What should be the steady state pumping rate from each well so that the drawdown in each well will not exceed $2$ m: The transmissivity of the confined aquifer that all the wells penetrate fully is $2400$ m$2/$day and all the wells are $40$ cm in diameter. Take the thickness of the aquifer b # $40$ m and the radius of influence of each well to be $800$ m$.6\mathrm{.}4\mathrm{.}7$ Reposition the wells in problem $6\mathrm{.}4\mathrm{.}6$ such that they form an equilateral triangle $($same spacings$).$ For the same restrictions on the drawdown, will the discharge decrease or increase? If so$,$ by what percent? If not, what difference do you perceive between the two problems?
