Is a parabola formed when a plane slices through a double cone perpendicular to the bases of the cone?
No. A hyperbola is formed when a plane slices a cone perpendicular to the bases.
What is the figure called formed by the intersection of a right circular cone and a plane that lies parallel to the edge of the cone?
A parabola is the figure formed by the intersection of a circular cone and a plane that lies parallel to the edge of the cone. (the cone does not have to be a right [90°] circular cone).
What is a circle shape cut from a cone?
It is a section formed by a plane at right angles to the axis of the cone.
What causes cone of depression in wells?
The weight of the atmosphere presses down on the groundwater in the well
Figure formed by a plane intersecting the surface of a cone?
That can be an ellipse, circle, parabola, or hyperbola. It depends on the angle between the plane and the axis or surface of the cone.

What is the name for a dip in water tables caused by pumping?
A dip in the water table caused by pumping is called a cone of depression. The land surface above the cone is called the area of influence.
