A rectangular container of cross- sectional area 4 m x 1.5 m on an inclined plane with liquid (bc = 0.6 %3D m) as shown in the figure below. You are required to determine the acceleration 'a' along the plane so that the free surface at the edge touches the point b, It may be assumed that the sides of container are high enough so that there is no spilling of liquid.
