Which Of The Following Does NOT Require Gravity For Its Formation? Artesian Well Capillary Fringe Hillside Spring Water Table

Answer Question

1 Answer - Sort by: Date | Rating

    An artesian well allows water that has traveled through porous rock form a higher elevation to rise to the surface.  This pumpless well seems to defy gravity because the pressure that builds up between layers of rock gets relieved when the water finds a path to the open air.
