Question:

A closed tank of liquid (SG = 1.2) is rotated about a vertical axis (see the fi gure), and at the same time the entire tank is accelerated upward at 4 m/s2. If the rate of rotation is 10 rad/s, what is the diff erence in pressure between points A and B (p– pA)? Point B is at the bottom of the tank at a radius of 0.5 m from the axis of rotation, and point A is at the top on the axis of rotation.
