Question

How much pressure should be
applied on a litre of water if it is to
be compressed by 0.1%? ( Bulk
modulus of water =2100 MPa).​

Answer 1

Answer:

Volume of water, V=1L

It is given that water is to be compressed by 0.10%.

∴ Fractional change, △V/V=(0.1/100)×1=10−3

Bulk modulus, B=P/(△V/V)

P=B×(△V/V)

Bulk modulus of water, B=2.2×109Nm−2

P=2.2×109×10−3=2.2×106Nm−2

Hence, the pressure on water should be 2.2×106Nm−2
