To solve the problem of determining the depth of water at each end of the tank when it is accelerated horizontally, we can follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understand the Tank Dimensions and Initial Conditions**: - The tank is 1.5 m wide, 2 m deep, and 2 m long (corrected to 3 m long). - It is half-filled with water, which means the initial depth of water is \( h_0 = 1 \, \text{m} \). ...
