$A$ body having volume $V$ and density $\rho$ is attached to the bottom of a container as shown. The density of the liquid is $d$ (where $d > \rho$). The container has a constant upward acceleration $a$. The tension in the string is:

  • A
    $V[d(g+a) - \rho(g+a)]$
  • B
    $V(g+a)(d - \rho)$
  • C
    $V(d - \rho)g$
  • D
    None of these
