11. An aquifer has a hydraulic conductivity of 12 ft/day, an effective porosity of 17%, and is under a hydraulic gradient of 0.0055. Assume density, p=0.9992 g/cm² and dynamic viscosity, u = 0.0117 g/cm-s. (6) a) Compute the specific discharge. b) Compute the average linear velocity. C) The mean pore diameter is 0.33 mm. Is it permissible to use Darcy's law under these circumstances? What is the reason for your answer?
