An open cubical tank was fully filled with water. When the tank was accelerated on a horizontal plane along one of its side was found that one third of volume of water spilled out. The acceleration was :-

Options:

Answer:

Solution:

Let the cube side be l. The free surface tilts by angle θ.
$Spilled volume = \frac{l ^{3}}{3} = \frac{1}{2} l^{2} y$
$y = \frac{2 l}{3}$
$tan θ = \frac{y}{l} = \frac{2}{3}$
$tan θ = \frac{a}{g}$
$a = \frac{2 g}{3}$
Option B.
