Problem 103P

Consider two water tanks filled with water. The first tank is 8 m high and is stationary, while the second tank is 2 m high and is moving upward with an acceleration of 5 m/s2. Which tank will have a higher pressure at the bottom?

ANSWER:

Step 1:

        Height of the first tank h1 = 8 m

        Height of the second tank h2 = 2 m

        Upward acceleration in the second tank a = 5 m/s2

        Acceleration due to gravity g = 9.8 m/s2

        Density of water = 1000 kg/m3
