Question: A 2 4 - hour aquifer pumping test with a constant rate of 1 5 l t s e c was conducted in a fully

A 24-hour aquifer pumping test with a constant rate of 15ltsec was conducted in a fully penetrating well completed in a confined aquifer. The recorded drawdowns in a monitoring well MW located 20 m away from the pumping well PW is given in the following table.
a) Plot time versus drawdown data on a semi-log paper.
b) Calculate aquifer parameters.
c) Are there any boundaries? If there are, indicate the type and the number of boundaries.
