Compressibility of water is 5xx10^(-10)m...

Compressibility of water is `5xx10^(-10)m^(2)//N`. Find the decrease in volume of `100 mL` of water when subjected to a pressure of `15 MPa`.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The compressibility `K` is the reciprocal of the bulk moxulus.
`:/_\V=-VK/_\p`
`=-((100mL)95xx10^(-10)m^(2)//N)(15xx10^(6)N//m^(2))`
`=-0.75mL`
The decrease in volume is thus `0.75mL`.
