MCQ
A closed rectangular tank is completely filled with water and is accelerated horizontally with an acceleration a towards right. Pressure is $(i)$ maximum at, and $ (ii) $ minimum at
  • $(i) B (ii) D$
  • B
    $(i) C (ii) D$
  • C
    $(i) B (ii) C$
  • D
    $(i) B (ii) A$

Answer

Correct option: A.
$(i) B (ii) D$
a
(a)Due to acceleration towards right, there will be a pseudo force in a left direction. So the pressure will be more on rear side (Points $A $ and $B$) in comparison with front side (Point $D$ and $C$).
Also due to height of liquid column pressure will be more at the bottom (points $ B $ and $C$) in comparison with top (point $A$ and $D$).
So overall maximum pressure will be at point $B $ and minimum pressure will be at point $D$.
