A cork and a metal bob are connected by a string as shown in the figure. If the beaker is given an acceleration towards left then the cork will be thrown towords:-

A

Right

B

Left

C

upwards with a uniform acceleration of `ms^(-2)`. What would be the readings on the scale in each case?

D

Downward

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
as density of cork is less than of water Pressure force `gt` Pseudo force
`therefore` cork moves towards left
