Two monitoring wells were constructed in an unconfined aquifer. The wells are separated by a distance of 250 ft. The water surface elevations in the up-gradient and down-gradient wells were 101.00 ft and 100.85 ft, respectively. The aquifer hydraulic conductivity is 5 ft/day. The fluid velocity (ft/day) in the aquifer is most nearly:
