normal
A given shaped glass tube having uniform cross-section is filled with water and is mounted on a rotatable shaft as shown in figure. If the tube is rotated with a constant angular velocity $\omega $ then

A
water levels in both sections $A$ and $B$ go up
B
water level in section $A$ goes up and that in $B$ comes down
C
water level in section $A$ comes down and that in $B$ it goes up
D
water levels remain same in both sections
Solution
Water level in both $A$ and $B$ will go up. The pressure difference thus created will provide the necessary centripetal force for the water body to rotate around the vertical axis.
