Q.3.There are ten tubewells in a lane of fifty houses. What could be the long-term impact on the water table?

Ans.The effect on the water table depends on the replenishment of underground water. Only five families will share a tubewell, the water used for daily domestic purposes will not effect the water table. But if there is shortage of rains, the water used by the family will not replenished and water table will fall down.
