49. A pumping test was made in a sand layer extending to a depth of 16m. The initial groundwater table was located 2m below the ground surface. Observation wells were sighted at distances 4m and 9.5m from the pumping well. Using a discharge of 0.4 cubic meters per hour, a steady level is attained at the pumping well. The measured drawdowns at the two observation wells are 2m and 0.25m respectively. Determine the coefficient of permeability of the soil.

Could you help me answer the following question? Thank you A fully penetrating pumping well extracts groundwater from a confined aquifer with a pumping rate of 750 m3/day. The hydraulic conductivity of the aquifer is 10 m/day and the saturated thickness is 50 m. The drawdown of the aquifer from this pumping well is insignificant at a distance of 1000 m from the pumping well. At what distance from the pumping well is the drawdown 10 cm? Assume the hydraulic gradient is negligible in the local area.
