In a groundwater field test, a tracer took 8 hours to travel between two observation wells which are 56 m apart. The difference in water table elevations in these wells was 0.70 m. The volume of the void of the aquifer is 30% of the total volume of the aquifer. What is the hydraulic conductivity of the aquifer, if the dynamic viscosity of water is 0.995 × 10.8 Ns/m2 ?
