  • Calculate Water Pressure: A Step-by-Step Guide
    Here's how to calculate the pressure at the bottom of the container:

    Understanding the Concepts

    * Pressure: Pressure is the force applied perpendicularly over a unit area. It's measured in Pascals (Pa), where 1 Pa = 1 N/m².

    * Force: The total force exerted by the water on the container's bottom.

    * Area: The area of the container's bottom.

    Formula

    Pressure (P) = Force (F) / Area (A)

    Calculation

    * Force (F) = 450 N

    * Area (A) = 2 m²

    Pressure (P) = 450 N / 2 m² = 225 Pa

    Answer

    The pressure at the bottom of the container is 225 Pascals.
