A 40 cm diameter tubewell is constructed in a 10 m thick confined aquifer having hydraulic conductivity of 25 m dayβˆ’1. The peizometric surface is observed to be 40 m high from the impervious stratum at the radius of influence of 500 m. The drawdown in the tubewell is 30 m. If the thickness of aquifer is doubled and diameter of tubewell is reduced to half, keeping all other parameters and conditions same, the change in discharge from the well is ____________. [Take Ο€ = 3.14]
A

B
Decreased by 83.72%
C
Increased by 82.28%
D
Decreased by 82.28%
