Question

The vertical limbs of a U shaped tube are filled with a liquid of density ρ upto a height h on each side. The horizontal portion of the U tube of length 2h contains a liquid of density 2ρ. The U tube is moved horizontally with an acceleration g/2 parallel to the horizontal arm. What is the difference in heights in the liquid levels in the two vertical limbs, at the current steady state.

Solution

At steady state, liquid profile be like
Let water displace by distance x
So, we can write
P0ρ(hx)g+ρg2x+2ρ(2hx)g2+2ρxg+ρgh=P0h+x+x2x+4h+2x+h=03x2=4hx=8h3
