The figure below shows a rectangular tank of dimensions ho = 2.5 m and b = 2 m is filled to the brim with a liquid of specific gravity 1.1 (tank is 1 m into plane of figure). The tank is subjected to a horizontal acceleration ax, and 30% of the liquid spills over. Determine the difference in liquid pressures at the lower left-hand corner (Point E) and lower right-hand corner of the tank (Point F). PE-PF= 1. [15.70090597, 16.672095597 kPa.
