Among solids, liquids and gases, which posses the greatest bulk modulus?
Bulk modulus is defining the ability of a material to resist deformation in terms of volume change, under pressure. Bulk modulus $$=\cfrac { P }{ \Delta V/V } $$ As solids have long-range order by its nature. Because the atoms of a crystal are arranged in an ordered pattern that stretches all the way across its material because of which if the same amount of pressure will be applied on solids, liquid, and gases then minimum fractional change in volume will be for solid. Thus solids are having the greatest Bulk Modulus. Option A is correct.
A bottle has an opening of radius $$a$$ and length $$b$$. A cork of length $$b$$ and radius $$(a+ \Delta a)$$ where $$(\Delta a << a)$$ is compressed to fit into the opening completely (See figure). If the bulk modulus of cork is B and the frictional coefficient between the bottle and cork is $$\mu$$ then the force needed to push the cork into the bottle is :
The bulk modulus for an incompressible liquid is?
If for a material, Y and B are Young's modulus and Bulk modulus then:
Compute the bulk modulus of water from the following data: Initial volume = 100.0 litre, Pressure increase = 100.0 atm ($$1 atm = 1.013 \times 10^5 Pa$$), Final volume = 100.5 litre. Compare the bulk modulus of water with that of air (at constant temperature). Explain in simple terms why the ratio is so large.
