Question: Question 3 ( 1 5 marks ) A 6 0 0 m wide unconfined aquifer has a hydraulic conductivity of 1 . 5 1 0

Question 3(15 marks)
A 600 m wide unconfined aquifer has a hydraulic conductivity of 1.510-5msec, and the bottom of the aquifer is 55 m below ground surface. The water level in well A in the aquifer is 43 m from the bottom of the aquifer. In a second well (B) located 120 m away from well A in the direction of groundwater flow the water level is 32 m from the aquifer bottom.
a) Determine the total flow through the aquifer.
b) Determine the head at a point 80 m from well A and 40 m from well B.
c) Determine the Darcy velocity (specific discharge) in the aquifer at a point 80 m from well A and 40 m from well B.
