Question
a) Explain the following: (12)
i) Aquifer.
ii) Capillary fringe.
iii) Perched Water table.
b) Find out the Velocities of the ground water flow with the following data, using Slichter and Hazen's constants as $400$ & $800$ respectively. Viscosity coefficient of water at ground water temperature of $10^\circ\text{C} = 1$. Effective size of particles in the aquifer $= 0.1\text{mm}$, hydraulic gradient $1\text{ in } 80$. (8)
