Question
A well of diameter 15 cm pumps at a steady rate of 265 L/min. It is located 15.2 m
from a lake shore that is straight. The well and the lake penetrate the same
homogeneous isotropic confined aquifer of hydraulic conductivity 2 m/day. At the
steady state the influence of a well pumping at the above rate on the aquifer is upto a
distance of 50 m from the well. Determine the drop in water level in the well assuming
that without the well pumping, the head at the well is essentially the same as the head
in the lake
