A water sample of volume 1.5litres is compressed by a pressure of 3×106N/m2. If the bulk modulus of water is 2.2×109N/m2

Bulk modulus: B = −pΔVV. Rearrange: ΔVV = −pB = −3×1062.2×109≈−1.36×10−3. Magnitude: 1.36×10−3. As per NCERT, applying relevant law/formula with correct units and sign convention leads to 1.36×10−3. This satisfies dimensional consistency and physical conditions given, so option D is scientifically correct.

Ref: NCBI Bookshelf, Ideal Gas Law: P1V1/T1 = P2V2/T2.

A water sample of volume 1litre is compressed by a pressure of 1×106N/m2. If the bulk modulus of water is 2.2×109N/m2, w

Bulk modulus: B = −pΔVV. Rearrange: ΔVV = −pB = −1×1062.2×109≈−4.55×10−4. Magnitude: 4.55×10−4. As per NCERT, applying relevant law/formula with correct units and sign convention leads to 4.55×10−4. This satisfies dimensional consistency and physical conditions given, so option D is scientifically correct.

A water sample of volume 2.5litres is compressed by a pressure of 2×106N/m2. If the bulk modulus of water is 2.2×109N/m2

Bulk modulus: B = −pΔVV. Rearrange: ΔVV = −pB = −2×1062.2×109≈−9.09×10−4. Magnitude: 9.09×10−4. As per NCERT, applying relevant law/formula with correct units and sign convention leads to 9.09×10−4. This satisfies dimensional consistency and physical conditions given, so option C is scientifically correct.
