$A$ closed rectangular tank is completely filled with water and is accelerated horizontally with an acceleration $a$ towards the right. Pressure is $(i)$ maximum at,and $(ii)$ minimum at:

Mountaineers suffer from nose bleeding (epistaxis) at higher altitudes. Explain.

If a vessel containing a fluid of density $\rho$ up to height $h$ is accelerated vertically downwards with acceleration $a_0$,then the pressure by the fluid at the bottom of the vessel is given by the equation ........ ($p_0$ denotes the atmospheric pressure and $g$ denotes the acceleration due to gravity).

$A$ cylinder stands vertically in two immiscible liquids of densities $\rho$ and $2\rho$. The heights of the two liquids are shown in the figure. Find the difference in pressure at point $A$ and point $B$.

$A$ liquid $X$ of density $3.36 \, g/cm^3$ is poured into a $U$-tube containing $Hg$ up to a height of $10 \, cm$. Another liquid $Y$ is poured into the left arm to a height of $8 \, cm$. The upper levels of $X$ and $Y$ are at the same height. Find the density of liquid $Y$ in $g/cm^3$. (Density of $Hg = 13.6 \times 10^3 \, kg/m^3$)

Straws are used to take soft drinks. Why?
