Determine the permeability of an artesian aquifer being pumped by a fully penetrating well. The aquifer is composed of medium sand and is 100 ft thick. The steady-state pumping rate is 1,200 gpm. The drawdown in an observation well 75 ft away is 14 ft, and the drawdown in a second observation well 500 fl away is 1.2 ft. Find K in gallons per day per square foot.
