14 A three-layer soil has the following properties: Layer 1: k = 2.75 x 10^-3 cm/s, H = 3.92 m. Layer 2: k = 1.5 x 10^-2 cm/s, H = 4.9 m. Layer 3: k = 3.41 x 10^-3 cm/s, H = 4.07 m. Determine the equivalent vertical coefficient of permeability of the soil arrangement. Layer 1 is on top of layer 2 while layer 2 is on top of layer 3. Round off to four decimal places.
