2. A well of 0.1 m radius is installed in the aquifer of the preceding exercise and is pumped at a rate averaging 80 liter/min.
a. Estimate drawdown in this well if the radius of influence is 100 ft. b. Estimate the hydraulic gradient in the aquifer at distances of 20 and 75 ft, both directly upstream and downstream of the well.

Question:
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

a. You have the position of the truck so you integrate twice. Use the formula and plug in the time t = 7 sec. Check out uniform acceleration. The time at which the truck's velocity is zero is when it stops.
b. Determine the initial speed. Plug in the time calculated in the previous step. From this we can observe that the truck comes to a stop before the end of the ramp.
