Option D is correct . I agree with the given answer.

Ref: S.K Garg.

Specific capacity means the rate of discharge of a production well per unit of drawdown.

The given answer is correct.

Because the yield of the well is equal to discharge/depth. When you solve the dimension you will get the answer is option D.

The answer should be B m3/hr.

Hisham said:   5 years ago
m3/hr/m2/m = m3/hr/m.
So D is right.

Deep said:   6 years ago
C is the correct answer.

Hayat said:   6 years ago
Why not Option B?
