Give me right solution according to the question. Urgent please A 20-cm diameter well completely penetrates a confined aquifer of permeability 0.088 cm/sec. The length of the aquifer is 34 m. When pumping was kept constant at 78 L/sec, the drawdown at an observation well, 112 meters from the pumping well, was found to be 0.79 meters. Determine the drawdown at the face of the pumping well (in meters).
7. A step-drawdown test was performed on the MX Well in southern Spring Valley in September 1980. The radius of the well casing is 5 inches, and the radius of the well and gravel pack is 7 inches. The well was drilled to a total depth of 700 feet below land surface, and is screened from 559 to 679 feet below land surface. Static water level in the well is 231.36 feet below land surface. Each pumping step ran for 3 hours, and the times and observed drawdowns for each step are given in the table below.
