If the container filled with liquid gets accelerated horizontally or vertically, pressure in liquid gets changed. In liquid ( a_(y) ) for calculation of pressure, effective g is used. A closed box horizontal base 6 m by 6 m and a height 2m is half filled with liquid. It is given a constant horizontal acceleration g//2 and vertical downward acceleration g//2 . Water pressure at the bottomof centre of the box is equal to (atmospheric pressure =10^(5)N//m^(2) density of water =1000 kg//m^(3),g=10m//s^(2) )
