A vessel contains water up to a height of 1.5 m. Taking the density of water `10^3 "kg m"^(-3)` , acceleration due to gravity `9.8 "m s"^(-2)` and area of base of vessel `100 "cm"^2`, calculate the pressure

Explanation

To calculate the pressure at the base of the vessel containing water, we can use the formula for pressure due to a column of liquid:

\[ P = \rho g h \]

Where:
- \( P \) is the pressure at the base,
- \( \rho \) is the density of the liquid (water in this case),
- \( g \) is the acceleration due to gravity,
