An open rectangular tank is 2 m long, 1 m
wide and 1.5 m deep. If the tank contains
gasoline to a depth of 1 m, calculate the
maximum horizontal acceleration with which
the tank can move without spilling gasoline.
Find the amount of gasoline retained in the
tank when it is accelerated at double the
previously calculated value.

A closed rectangular tank 1.2 m high, 2.5 m
wide is filled with water. The pressure at the
top of the tank is raised to 60 KN/m2.
Calculate the pressure at the corners of this
tank when it is decelerated horizontally
along the direction of its length at 5 m/sec2.
Calculate the force on the ends of the tank and
check their difference by Newton's law.

the direction of its length if a safety valve
that withstands a maximum pressure of 60 KN/m2
is fitted at the center of its rear end.
