The question is not complete. See the complete question and the answer below.
A well that pumps at a constant rate of 0.5m3/s fully penetrates a confined aquifer of 34 m thickness. After a long period of pumping, near steady state conditions, the measured drawdowns at two observation wells 50m and 100m from the pumping well are 0.9 and 0.4 m respectively. (a) Calculate the hydraulic conductivity and transmissivity of the aquifer (b) estimate the radius of influence of the pumping well, and (c) calculate the expected drawdown in the pumping well if the radius of the well is 0.4m.
Answer:
T = 0.11029m²/sec
Radius of influence = 93.304m
expected drawdown = 3.9336m

Answer:
The Bailey family has flourished during its business’ 110-year history. But Bailey Nurseries’ leaders still operate with the belief that the family doesn’t always know best. The company has grown from a one-man operation selling fruit trees and ornamental shrubs to one of the largest wholesale nurseries in the United States, thanks to insights from those who are family and those who aren’t.
“For a business to thrive, you have to ask for outside help,” says Terri McEnaney, president of the Newport-based company and a fourth-generation family member. “We get an outside perspective through family business programs, advisors and our board, because you can get a bit ingrained in your own way of thinking.”
When Bailey Nurseries chose its current leader in 2000, it brought in a facilitator who gathered insights from key employees, board members and owners. Third-generation leaders (and brothers) Gordie and Rod Bailey picked Rod’s daughter McEnaney, who had experience both inside and outside the company.

Answer:
The velocity of flow is 10.0 m/s.
Explanation:
We shall use Manning's equation to calculate the velocity of flow
Velocity of flow by manning's equation is given by

where
n = manning's roughness coefficient
R = hydraulic radius
S = bed slope of the channel
We know that for an asphalt channel value of manning's roughness coefficient = 0.016
Applying values in the above equation we obtain velocity of flow as
