Problem

A cylindrical vessel with a cross-sectional area S filled with a liquid of density ρ\rho is mounted on the trolley. A long and thin horizontal tube extends from the vessel parallel to the floor, a small segment of which is bent vertically down near the end. The distance from the vessel axis to the tube opening is L. The liquid level in the container drops with acceleration a. What horizontal force can be used to hold the cart in place?
