The cubical container ABCDEFGH which is completely filled with an ideal (no viscous and incompressible) fluid, moves in a gravity free space with a acceleration of a = a 0
where a 0 is a positive constant. Then the only point in the container where pressure is maximum, is

Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
A
a = a 0 (
)
As there is no gravity; the pressure difference will be only due to the acceleration.
All points other than point 'B', are acted upon by a pseudo force.
Hence, at point 'B' pressure developed is zero.
