If the container filled with liquid gets accelerated horizontally or vertically, pressure in liquids gets changed. In case of horizontally accelerated liquid (ax), the free surface has the slope ax/g. In case of vertically accelerated liquid (ay) for calculation of pressure, effective g is used. A closed box with horizontal base 6 m by 6m and a height 2m is half filled with liquid. It is given constant horizontal acceleration g/2 and vertical downward acceleration g/2 .
The angle of the free surface with the horizontal is equal to
- 30
- tan–1 (2/3)
- tan–1 (1/3)
- 45º
Answer
(D) 45º
