Question

Which of the following can be termed as mechanical failure in wells run dry?

• A. The pump may be broken or clogged
• B. There may be a fault with the electrical system
• C. Leak in a pipe may be preventing the well water from reaching the house
• D. Minerals can also build up inside the well
• E. All of these

Answer 1

The correct option is E All of these

Wells can be dried due to some mechanical failures which are-

1)Broken pump of the wells will cause leakage of water, and it will lead to wastage of water which in turn dry up the wells.

2)Electric system failure will lead to wastage of water since water will not reach the destination and starts leaking in the middle of the pipeline.

3)Mud, minerals, stones, etc. get accumulated in the well, they will absorb the well water and, well in turn run dry.
