A student is investigating the pressure exerted by water inside a cubical metal container. The diagram shows the container, which has a square base with side lengths of 0.15 m0.15\text{ m}0.15 m.
The water pressure at the bottom of the container is 1800 Pa1800\text{ Pa}1800 Pa.
Calculate the force of the water acting on the bottom of the container.
