An earthen dam is constructed on an impermeable bedrock layer. It is 123 m across (i.e., the distance from the water in the reservoir to the tailwaters below the dam is 123 m). The average hydraulic conductivity of the material used in the dam construction is 1.33 m/day. The water in the reservoir behind the dam is 18.5 m deep and the tailwaters below the dam are 4.6 m deep. Compute the volume of water that seeps from the reservoir, through the dam, and into the tailwaters per a 100-m-wide strip of the dam in cubic meters per day.
