Determine the transmissivity through a confined aquifer

Reference no: EM13313835

A 12-in well is drilled through a confined aquifer of average thickness 80 ft. Two observation wells located 50 and 120 ft away register a difference in drawdown of 10 ft. The steady-state pumping rate is 1000 gpm. Determine the transmissivity.
