MUST DO PROBLEMS #1 & #2 AND SELECT ONE BLEM FROM 3 or 4
(25) Answer the following questions with a thankful heart.
\table[[Ground elevation (above MSL),110 ft],[Monitoring well bottom elevation (above MSL),0 ft],[Depth to water in well from ground surface,22 ft]]
\table[[Material,\table[[Porosity],[(%)]],\table[[Hydraulic],[Conductivity],[(ft/day)]]],[Gravel (med),30,890],[Gravel (fine),32,1,460],[Clay,40,0.006],[Sand,34,40.0],[Dune Sand,35,65.6],[Silt,21,0.26],[Limestone,34,4.0],[Peat,31,18.7],[Tuff,34,0.7]]
MSL = mean sea level
a. A monitoring well (aka piezometer, not pumped) has been installed in a confined aquifer and the data in the table have been collected. Based on the information provided, find the following:
Elevation Head in ft
Pressure Head in ft
Hydraulic Head (in ft
Pressure (in psi)=
b. After a storm with an effective duration of 8-hours and VRO=5,200Ac- ft , a station downstream from a 65 square mile drainage basin measures a peak river discharge of 7,200cfs. If the stream flow before the storm was 1,200cfs, what is the peak discharge of the unit hydrograph (in cfs/in)?
c. What is the significance of the 8-hour effective duration for the storm in part b?
