When any liquid is accelerated with an acceleration, then the pressure difference is given by the Formula,
P₂ - P₁ = ρla
where ρ is the density of the fluid, and l is the distance between two vertical limbs of the container and a is the acceleration.
Therefore, In the Given case,
P₂ - P₁ = ρla₀ [∵ a₀ is the acceleration is horizontal direction.]
Now, We know, Pressure difference has one more formula,
P₂ - P₁ = hρg
where ρ is the density of the fluid and h is the height difference between a pressure P₂ and Pressure P₁.
Equation both the equation,
hρg = ρla₀
hg = la₀
∴ h = la₀/g
