Consider a water tank shown in the figure. It has one wall at \(x=L\) and can be taken to be very wide in the \(z\) direction. When filled with a liquid of surface tension \(S\) and density \(\rho,\) the liquid, surface makes angle \(\theta_{0}\left(\theta_0 \ll 1\right)\) with the \(x\text-\)axis at \(x=L.\) If \(y(x)\) is the height of the surface then the equation for \(y(x)\) is:

(take \(\theta(x)=\sin \theta(x)=\tan \theta(x)=\dfrac{d y}{d x}, g\) is the acceleration due to gravity)
1. \(\dfrac{d^2 y}{d x^2}=\sqrt{\dfrac{\rho g}{S}}\) 2. \(\dfrac{d y}{d x}=\sqrt{\dfrac{\rho g}{S}} x\)
3. \(\dfrac{d^2 y}{d x^2}=\dfrac{\rho g}{S} x\) 4. \(\dfrac{d^2 y}{d x^2}=\dfrac{\rho g}{S} y\)
