What is A well in which water rises because of pressure within an aquifer?

They are called Artesian Wells where underground water under positive pressure causes the water level in the well to rise to a point where hydrostatic equilibrium has been reached. If the water reaches ground level they are call flowing artesian wells; some my look like fountains.

A technician needing to control the heat level within a space would use a thermostat?
That opens as the temperature rises.
Why would a heater work better near the floor than on the ceiling?
Because heat rises.
How does resistivity depends on temperature of conductors?
The resistance of a simple conductor normally rises as its temperature rises.
What is the working principle of inclined tube manometer?
For a very basic explanation, a manometer measures the pressure differential between a closed pressure applied at one end and an open pressure at the other. For example. If you have a typical u-bend manometer and you apply an air pressure at one end, the liquid will raise correspondingly, as the pressure on the closed side increases more and more above the ambient air pressure. The amount it rises depends on the density of the liquid used and the diameter of the tubing. So basically a manometer uses the height of a liquid to translate the amount above ambient air pressure, which is considered zero, of your pressure source.
Why are direct acting relief valves not used on high pressure and high flow hydraulic systems?
As a direct relief valve opens, its spool or poppet pushes against a spring. As the spring compresses, the system pressure necessarily rises due to the spring constant. To handle large flows, you need a big valve. To minimize the pressure rise due to the spring constant you need a long spring. To minimize the pressure drop due to the valve body, you need a big valve body, which in turn needs a bigger spring. As the operating pressure goes up, you need stiffer (typically bigger)springs. Eventually the cost of the valve is prohibitive and a pilot operated valve is called for. There are benefits to using direct operated valves which may out weigh the costs, but most direct operated valves are limited to medium and low pressure settings.
A well in which water rises because of pressure within the aquifer?
In an artesian well, water rises because of pressure sustained within the aquifer. In this system, water sometimes escapes to the surface to cause artesian springs.
Well in which water rises because of pressure in the aquifer?
An Artesian well, or commonly a spring, will flow of their own accord.
Water rises naturally out of an artesian well why?
Because Of The Pressure. In an artesian well the aquifer is sandwiched between impermeable rock and that creates positive pressure. When the well is drilled the water has a route to air and is forced to the surface. It's the same as a natural spring with a geyser.
Why does boiling point rises with the rise of pressure?
because it does - AL + BF
Why does high pressure mean good pressure?
high pressure makes good weather because the air mass rises
At divergent plate boundaries in the ocean magma rises and melts because of what?
Because of a decrease in pressure.
What divergent plate boundaries in the ocean magma rises and melts because of?
Because of a decrease in pressure.
At divergent plate boundaries in the ocean magma rises and melts because of?
Because of a decrease in pressure.
Why do people need to keep containers with gasses under cool condition?
Because gasses expand when the temperature rises, which puts extra pressure on the containers which again may cause them to explode if the temperature rises too much. When stored cold, the level of pressure will stay well within the limits that the containers safely can withstand.
What happens to pressure in a container while the temperature rises?
Answer The pressure increases when the temperature rises.
Why is the air pressure at the top of the chimney less than the pressure at the bottom?
Smoke rises up the chimney partly because hot air rises and partly because it is pushed wind blowing across the top of a chimney lowers the air pressure there the higher pressure at the bottom pushes air and smoke up the chimney
What happens to the volume or size of a balloon as it rises in the air?
The volume of the balloon will increase as it rises in the air. This is because the atmospheric pressure decreases at higher altitudes.
