Question

Define Bulk modulus of elasticity.

Answer 1

It is given by the ratio of pressure applied to the corresponding relative decrease in volume of the material. The relation is given below.

B = ΔP /(ΔV/V)

Where:

B: Bulk modulus

ΔP: change of the pressure or force applied per unit area on the material

ΔV: change of the volume of the material due to the compression

V: Initial volume of the material in the units of in the English system and N/m2 in the metric system.

Hope it helps you my dear friend

Answer 2

BULK MODULUS ➡️ The bulk modulus of a substance is a measure of how resistant to compression that substance is. It is defined as the ratio of the infinitesimal pressure increase to the resulting relative decrease of the volume.
