Answer: projection.

Explanation:

A map projection is one of the various techniques used to flatten a spherical  globe's surface into a plane sheet to create a map.

This process is a mathematical process because transformation of the locations from the surface of the globe is done by considering the latitudes and longitudes of locations into the locations on a plane.

Hence, a mathematical process for transferring locations from a globe to a flat map is a <u>projection.</u>

A confined aquifer has a specific storage of 2.4 x 10-S ft and a thickness of 300 ft. How much water (in acre-ft) would it yield
Georgia [21]

Answer:

water it yield is 244290.45 ft

Explanation:

given data

specific storage SS = 2.4 × 10^{-5} ft

thickness b = 300 ft

water declined ΔH  = 4.8 ft

radius r = 1,500 ft

to find out

How much water  would it yield

solution

we know that

volume of water is

Vw = S × Area ×  ΔH    ..............1

here S = specific storage × thickness

S = 2.4 × 10^{-5} × 300

S = 7.2 ×  10^{-3}

and

area = πr² = π 1,500² = 7068589.471 ft²

so

volume of water is

Vw = 7.2 ×  10^{-3}  × 7068589.471 ×  4.8

Vw = 244290.45

so water it yield is 244290.45 ft
