Due to power interruption, 15,000 gallons of water is requested by a commercial building to be transported by an open container van 8m long, 2.50m wide, and 3m high. a. If it is accelerated horizontally to the right at 10 m/s, determine the remaining volume in gallons b. From the original condition, determine the horizontal acceleration in m/s if half af the volume spilled out.
