MCQ
A vessel containing water is given a constant acceleration a towards the right, along a straight horizontal path. Which of the following diagram represents the surface of the liquid
- A$A$
- B$B$
- ✓$C$
- D$D$
✓
Answer
Correct option: C.
$C$
c
(c)Due to acceleration in forward direction, vessel is an accelerated frame therefore a Pseudo force will be exerted in backward direction. Therefore water will be displaced in backward direction.
