A sealed tank containing a liquid of density `rho` moves with horizontal acceleration a as shown in the figure. The difference in pressure between two points `A` and `B` will be

A

`hrhog`

B

`lrhog`

C

`hrhog-lrhoa`

D

`hrhog-lrhoa`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D
The points `A` and `C` are in same horizontal level hence `P_(C)-P_(A) =rhoal`.
(refer to figure in question to identify `A,B,C`) ,
Now `P_(B)-P_(C)=rhogh`
`impliesP_(B)-(P_(1)+rhoal)=rhoghimpliesP_(B)-P_(A)=hrhog+lrhoa`
