Answer and Explanation:
O decreases linearly with the distance from the generator
Answer:
The pressure drop across the pipe also reduces by half of its initial value if the viscosity of the fluid reduces by half of its original value.
Explanation:
For a fully developed laminar flow in a circular pipe, the flowrate (volumetric) is given by the Hagen-Poiseulle's equation.
Q = π(ΔPR⁴/8μL)
where Q = volumetric flowrate
ΔP = Pressure drop across the pipe
μ = fluid viscosity
L = pipe length
If all the other parameters are kept constant, the pressure drop across the circular pipe is directly proportional to the viscosity of the fluid flowing in the pipe
ΔP = μ(8QL/πR⁴)
ΔP = Kμ
K = (8QL/πR⁴) = constant (for this question)
ΔP = Kμ
K = (ΔP/μ)
So, if the viscosity is halved, the new viscosity (μ₁) will be half of the original viscosity (μ).
μ₁ = (μ/2)
The new pressure drop (ΔP₁) is then
ΔP₁ = Kμ₁ = K(μ/2)
Recall,
K = (ΔP/μ)
ΔP₁ = K(μ/2) = (ΔP/μ) × (μ/2) = (ΔP/2)
Hence, the pressure drop across the pipe also reduces by half of its initial value if the viscosity of the fluid reduces by half of its value.

Answer:
S = 5.7209 M
Explanation:
Given data:
B = 20.1 m
conductivity ( K ) = 14.9 m/day
Storativity ( s ) = 0.0051
1 gpm = 5.451 m^3/day
calculate the Transmissibility ( T ) = K * B
= 14.9 * 20.1 = 299.5 m^2/day
Note :
t = 1
U = ( r^2* S ) / (4*T*<em> t </em>)
= ( 7^2 * 0.0051 ) / ( 4 * 299.5 * 1 ) = 2.0859 * 10^-4
Applying the thesis method
W(u) = -0.5772 - In(U)
= 7.9
next we calculate the pumping rate from well ( Q ) in m^3/day
= 500 * 5.451 m^3 /day
= 2725.5 m^3 /day
Finally calculate the drawdown at a distance of 7.0 m form the well after 1 day of pumping
S = 
where : Q = 2725.5
T = 299.5
W(u) = 7.9
substitute the given values into equation above
S = 5.7209 M
