How is an artesian well different from a drill well?

Answer 1

The difference between an artesian well and a geyser is that............

a artesian is a pump less water source that use pipes to allow underground water.

a geyser is a hot spring in which water intermittently boils.

Answer 2

Ordinary wells

Rain water that is not absorbed by plants run deep into the ground. This water can be pumped up for use by digging deep and forcing the water to come out, for example a bore well. This is an ordinary well.

Artesian wells

Artesian wells are found in areas where there is sand stone or lime stone. These rocks are highly porous and water easily seeps in and gets trapped.

When more and more water accumulates the pressure builds up and forces the trapped water to come out to the surface. Water can also be forced out due to pressure from adjacent rocks.

This water is readily available and can be easily drawn out through pipes and does not need any pumping or external force.

Answer 3

An artesian well is a well that is dug into the ground to the water table and is under pressure and will spray out of the well head like a oil geyser.

Answer 4

well water is pump of of the ground, artesian well water comes out of the ground by itself

Answer 5

Artesian: A well drilled through impermeable strata into strata that receive water from a higher altitude so there is pressure to force the water to flow upward

Answer 6

A artesian well is water under pressure. It will rise to the surface without a pump.
