The lowered surface in the water table around a well is called a cone of depression. It is caused by the pumping of water from the well, which creates a temporary lowering of the water table in that specific area. The cone of depression will become larger if there is excessive pumping from the well or if the water table is already low, and will become smaller if pumping is reduced or if the water table is replenished through natural recharge.
What else can I help you with?
What is the surface on which the lithospheric plates move around earths surface?
Lower mantle is the surface on which the lithospheric plates move around earths surface.
Is the sun 100 degrees or 1000 degrees?
Neither. Surface temperature is about 5,600 degrees
What is a reasonable average temperature of the surface of the earth?
The reasonable average temperature of the surface of the Earth is around 59 degrees Fahrenheit (15 degrees Celsius).
How many percent of water does the earth have?
Not much, really. However, it's mostly on the surface. About 71% of Earth's surface is covered in water, but in terms of total mass, it's a nearly insignificant fraction... about 0.025%. The USGS has an interesting page showing how much water there is on Earth, if you were to collect it all into one ball, compared to the size of the Earth. It's a lot smaller than you probably think.
What is the ground temperature at 10 feet below the surface?
The ground temperature at 10 feet below the surface is typically around 50-60 degrees Fahrenheit.
What is played when flag is lowered at night?
Retreat is played for the lowering of the colors(flag). TAPS has nothing to do with the lowering of the flag, this is played at multiple ceremonies and around 2200 HOURS(Lights Out).
Which has the greater surface area one large cell or 27 smaller cells?
27 smaller cells would have a greater surface area than one large cell. This is because the total surface area of the smaller cells would be greater due to the additional surface area of the cell membranes around each individual cell.
What is the surface pressures of mars?
Mars' surface pressure is around 0.7 kPa, around 0.7% of Earths surface pressure. The planet has a smaller mass and lower surface gravity than Earth, so it can only hold a thin atmosphere.
Why do you need to tie a piece of string around the solid while lowering it into a measuring cylinder?
I presume that you are trying to find the volume of an irregular solid. It is usual to tie a piece of thin cotton around the solid prior to lowering it into the measuring cylinder. This is so that you can control the decent of the object, i.e. it is not dropped into the cylinder causing the water to splash out, thus not giving an accuarate value for volume of the solid.
When the phrase 'get your ears lowered' originate?
The phrase "get your ears lowered" is a colloquial way of saying "get a haircut." The origins of this phrase are not definitively known, but it likely comes from the idea of having hair trimmed around the ears during a haircut, which can make them appear lower or smaller. This phrase is a playful and informal way of referring to getting a haircut.
At around 500000 bc what did the extensive glaciers do to the sea level around the world?
The sea level lowered
What is the only American flag that is not lowered?
The only one that 'can't' be lowered is flying on the moon. With proper lighting, any American flag can be flown around the clock.
What are these tiny worms in your indoor palm tree soil?
Probably fungus gnat larva. They wiggle around on the surface of the soil when you water it and are smaller than 1cm.
Does Mars have a canyon?
Yes, Mars has many mountains and canyons. Check out Valles Marineris, a huge canyon on the planets surface, with many smaller canyons and valleys around it.
Is the sun spherical or just a ball of gas?
the sun is in the shape of a sphere but the sun we see is alot smaller then it really is. it does have a giant ball of gas around it but it does have a solid surface.
When is allowed to drive around or under a lowered gate at a railroad crossing?
When a RR employee signals you to do so.
What would be the temperature if a plane flew up to 9 km?
Temperature will be lowered to -60 C. The temperature as we feel on the surface is higher than at altitude because air get the heat from the ground in form of conduction and convection. Earth surface is warm since it absorb solar radiation. Radiation mostly pass through air without affect so it didn't warm the air. It is earth surface that warm the air around the surface. Moving up high, we no longer have heat support from the surface and it is awful colder up there.
