A permeability pumping test was carried out in a confined aquifer with the piezometric level before pumping is 2.18 m below the ground surface .The aquiclude has thickness of 5.7 m measured from the ground surface and the confined aquifer is 7.6 m deep until it reaches aquiclude at the bottom .At a steady pumping rate of 15.6 cu m/hour the drawdown in the observation wells were respectively equal to 1.62m and 0.47m .The distances of the observation wells from the center of the test well were 15 m and 32m,respectively. Compute the hydraulic conductivity in m/s
