If a vessel containing a fluid of density ρ upto height h is accelerated vertically downwards with acceleration ao then the pressure by fluid at the bottom of vessel is: (Atmosphere pressure = P0)

a
P=Po+ρgh+hao
b
P=Po +ρgh
c
P=Po+ρh(g-ao)
d
P=Po- ρgh

detailed solution

Correct option is C

The vessel is non-inertial frame of reference. so upward inertia force acts on water in the vessel.P - P0 = ρh(g - a0) ⇒ P = P0 + ρh(g - a0)
