How to Evaluate Slope of Isobar given Inclination Angle of Free Surface?

Slope of Isobar given Inclination Angle of Free Surface evaluator uses Slope of Isobar = -tan(Inclination Angle of Free Surface) to evaluate the Slope of Isobar, The Slope of Isobar given Inclination Angle of Free Surface formula is defined as the function of inclination angle. Thus we conclude that the isobars (including the free surface) in an incompressible fluid with constant acceleration in linear motion are parallel surfaces whose slope is in the xz-plane. The free surface of such a fluid is a plane surface, and it is inclined unless ax = 0 (the acceleration is in the vertical direction only). Also, conservation of mass, together with the assumption of incompressibility (𝜌 = constant), requires that the volume of the fluid remain constant before and during acceleration. Therefore, the rise of fluid level on one side must be balanced by a drop of fluid level on the other side. This is true regardless of the shape of the container, provided that the liquid is continuous throughout the container. Slope of Isobar is denoted by S symbol.
