JEE Main 2022 — Mechanical Properties of Solids Question with Solution

JEE Main 2022 (24 Jun Shift 1)

Question

The bulk modulus of a liquid is 3×1010Nm-2. The pressure required to reduce the volume of liquid by 2% is :

Choose an option

Show full solutionCorrect option: B
Correct answer
B6×108 N m-2

Step-by-step explanation

Bulk modulus B=Volumetric stressVolumetric strain=-∆P∆VV

Then, ∆P=B×-∆VV=3×1010×2100=6×108 N m-2
