The relation between Transmissibility (T) and Permeability (K) for an aquifer of depth d is _______

(a) K = T.d

(b) T = K.d

(c) T = K.log d

(d) T = ln (Kd)

I have been asked this question in an online interview.

My question is taken from Factor Controlling Occurrence of Ground Water in portion Ground Water for Irrigation through Wells and Tubewells of Irrigation Engineering

Correct option is (b) T = K.d

Easiest explanation: Transmissibility is measured by the coefficient of transmissibility (T) and was introduced by Theiss. It can be defined as the rate of flow of water through an aquifer of unit width and full-depth under a hydraulic gradient and at a temperature of 20°C. The relation between K and T is given as T=K.d.
