Answer:

Sinkholes are just one of many forms of ground collapse, or subsidence. Land subsidence is a gradual settling or sudden sinking of the Earth’s surface owing to subsurface movement of earth materials. The principal causes of land subsidence are aquifer-system compaction, drainage of organic soils, underground mining, hydrocompaction, natural compaction, sinkholes, and thawing permafrost. Land subsidence can affect areas that are thousands of square miles in size.

So 1 plok = 2.6 feet

It is given that 1 plok = 6 pleeka

And height of Sur'Kesh is 18 pleeka

As we know that 1 plok = 6 pleeka

So 18 pleeka $=\frac{18}{6}=3\ plok$

As 1 plok = 2.6 feet

So 3 plok = 3×2.6 = 7.8 feet

And it is given that 1 foot = 12 inches

So 7.8 feet = 7.8×12 = 93.6 inches
