Solution

To calculate the pressure, we can use the formula for pressure in a fluid column which is given by:

P = ρgh

where: P is the pressure, ρ is the density of the fluid, g is the acceleration due to gravity, and h is the height of the fluid column.

Given: ρ = 1000 kg/m³ (density of water), g = 9.81 m/s² (approximate acceleration due to gravity on Earth), and h = 1.5 m (height of the water column).

Substituting these values into the formula, we get:

P = 1000 kg/m³ * 9.81 m/s² * 1.5 m = 14715 Pa

So, the pressure at the bottom of the vessel is 14715 Pascal.
