A ball falling in a lake of 200 m shows a decrease of 0.1% in its volume. The Bulk modulus of elasticity of the material of the ball is - (take g =10 m/s2)
A
109 N/m2
B
2 × 109 N/m2
C
3 ×109 N/m2
D
4 × 109 N/m2
Answer
2 × 109 N/m2
Explanation
Solution
DP = hdg = 200 × 103 ×10 = 2 × 106 N/m2
K = ΔV/VΔP=.1/1002×106=2×109N/m2
