Question:

A U-shaped tube with a horizontal portion of length I (Fig. 14.40) contains a liquid. What is the reference in height between the liquid clowns in the vertical arms?
(a) If the tube bas an acceleration a toward the right and
(b) If the tube is mounted on a horizontal turn-table rotating with an angular speed w with one of the vertical arms on the axis of rotation?
(c) Explain why the reference in height does not depend on the density of the liquid or on the cross-sectional area of the tube. Would it be the same if the vertical tubes rod not has equal cross-sectional areas? Would it be the same if the horizontal portion were tapered from one end to the other? Explain.
