Question 126: Properties of Matter

Question

The bulk modulus of a liquid is 3 $$	imes$$ 10
10
Nm
$$-$$2
. The pressure required to reduce the volume of liquid by 2% is :

Accepted Answer

$$\because$$ $$B = {{\Delta P} \over {\left( { - {{\Delta V} \over V}} ight)}}$$
$$ \Rightarrow \Delta P = 3 	imes {10^{10}} 	imes (0.02)$$
$$ = 6 	imes {10^8}$$ N/m
2
