The unsaturated zone is the area of the subsurface that is above the groundwater table. The pores of the soil and rock in this zone contain both air and water.

<h3>What is the water table?</h3>

The water table is the subsurface border between the unsaturated and saturated zones.

The water table is an underground border that separates the soil surface from the area where groundwater saturates crevices between sediments and rock fissures.

At this point, the pressures of water and air are equal.

The unsaturated zone is the soil surface above the water table, where both oxygen and water fill the crevices between particles.

Therefore Option C is correct as it is where a person will immediately reach after drilling a well through an unsaturated zone.

To measure a base lone, a steel stape 30m lang, Standardised at 15°C with a pull of 80N was used. find the correction per tape l
iren2701 [21]

The correction of thermal expansion per tape length, if the temperature at the time of measurements is 25°c and the pull exerted is 150N is 4.67 ×10 ⁻³m.

Thermal expansion is the tendency of remembering to change in form, volume, and region in response to an alternate in temperature. Temperature is a monotonic characteristic of the common molecular kinetic power of a substance.

Given,

Length of steel tape = 30m

Temperature at standardization = 15°C

The temperature at the time of measurement = 25°C

Standardized pull (Po) = 80N

Pull exerted (Pm) = 150N

Young modulus of elasticity = E =  E= 2X10^5 N/mm2

Coefficient of thermal expansion = 211.2x10^6c°

Cross-sectional area of tape = 8 mm²

For temperature correction  Cm = (Tm - T₀)αL₀

Putting α = ( 25 - 15 ) × 11.2 × 10⁻⁶ × 30

            Cm = 3.36 ×  10⁻³ m

For full correction ;

         C pull = (Pm - Po ) × Lo

Putting value'

    C pull =  (150 - 80) × 30 ×  1000 /8 ×2 × 10⁵

    C pull = 1.31 × 10 ⁻³

Total correction = 3.36 × 10⁻³ m + 1.31 × 10 ⁻³

Total correction = 4.67 ×10 ⁻³

Kaylis [27]

Answer:

There are total of thirty islands like British Virgin Islands, Anguilla, Saint Martin/Sint Maarten, Saint-Barthélemy, Saba, Sint Eustatius, Saint Kitts, Nevis, Barbuda, Antigua, Redonda, Montserrat, Guadeloupe, La Désirade, Marie-Galante.

Explanation:

  • Leeward means in the opposite direction of winds, such as westerlies and trade winds these terms used by sailing ships.
  • Leeward islands are a group of Islands, located in the northeastern Caribbean sea located east of Puerto Rico, they are also referred to the northern islands of lesser Antilles chain.  
  • These islands are affected by volcanic activity, and notable eruptions have occurred in the history of these islands. Leeward island became a British territory in 1671,  
  • Most of the leeward islands are a part of the U.S territory and comprise a population of 700,000. The largest settlement in Les Abymes. Islands host diverse life forms both on land and seas.
