Answer:
The stream becomes narrow and the water table becomes shallow as the number of pumps running is increased.
Explanation:
- More number of pumps clearly means more amount of water is extracted from the river.
- When the rate of refilling of the river is not as fast as that of emptying of the river, it is natural that the river would progress towards drying up.
- Before it dries up, the stream (the size or the span of flow) becomes narrow and the water goes deep to expose the riverbed.
