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 lowering of the water table that occurs when water is pumped from a well?
the cone of depression
When water is pumped from a well a depression is often produced in the water table Such a depression is called a?
Cone of depression
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.
When does a cone of depression form?
A cone of depression forms in an aquifer when groundwater is rapidly pumped from a well, creating a lowering of the water table around the well in a cone shape due to the water being drawn towards the well. This can result in nearby wells or surface water bodies experiencing reduced water levels.
How can a cone of depression cause a well to go dry?
A cone of depression forms when water is pumped from a well faster than it can be replenished by groundwater. This causes the water level around the well to drop, creating a cone-shaped depression in the water table. If the cone of depression extends below the depth of the well screen or pump intake, the well can go dry because no water is being drawn into the well.
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 depression on earths surface that can be dry or filled with water?
A depression on the surface of the Earth created by groundwater is known as a cone of depression.
When water is pumped from a well a depression is often produced in the water table. Such a depression is a?
Cone of depression
What shape is formed by the intersection of a cone and a plane that is parallel to a cone's base not containing the cone's vertex?
The shape described by the intersection of the cone and the plane is simply a circle.
What is the name for a dip in water tables caused by pumping?
The term for a dip in water tables caused by pumping is called "cone of depression." This occurs when groundwater is extracted at a faster rate than it can be replenished, leading to a lowering of the water table in the vicinity of the extraction site.
In three words describe the shape of the water table around a pumping well?
Conical or cone-shaped.
Geometric solid two surfaces one formed by a circle and the other curved?
a cone...
