How to Evaluate Vertical Rise or Drop of Free Surface given Acceleration in X and Z Direction?

Vertical Rise or Drop of Free Surface given Acceleration in X and Z Direction evaluator uses Change in Z Coordinate of Liquid's Free Surface = -(Acceleration in X Direction/([g]+Acceleration in Z Direction))*(Location of Point 2 from Origin in X Direction-Location of Point 1 from Origin in X Direction) to evaluate the Change in Z Coordinate of Liquid's Free Surface, The Vertical Rise or Drop of Free Surface given Acceleration in X and Z Direction formula is defined as the function of Acceleration on both x and z direction, gravitational acceleration and distance of the point from origin in x direction. 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. Change in Z Coordinate of Liquid's Free Surface is denoted by ΔZs symbol.
