Specific Yield of Wells: Rate of water percolation in the well or yield of a well in m3/hr under a head of one metre is called the specific yield of the well.
(1)

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 Specific capacity or specific yield in cubic meter per hour per sq Meter of area under unit drawdown.

Oscar said:   3 years ago
Specific capacity means the rate of discharge of a production well per unit of drawdown.

Rahul said:   8 years ago
This rate is expressed in m3/hr or It/min and will be obviously the yield of the well.

Sverma said:   1 decade ago
I think it is wrong answer. Units should be that of flow rate per unit draw down.

Rohit said:   7 years ago
Option D is correct . I agree with the given answer.

Ref: S.K Garg.

Baloch said:   8 years ago
Its m^3/hr or liter/min.

So, Answer is B.

Priya said:   7 years ago
The answer is correct it's m^3/hour/m^2.

Khadim hussain said:   9 years ago
Anwer, m^3/ hour option B is correct.
