The bulk modulus of water is `2.0xx10^(9) N//m^(2)`. The pressure required to increase the density of water by `0.1%` is

Options

A. `2xx10^(9)N//m^(2)`
B. `2xx10^(12)N//m^(2)`
C. `2xx10^(6)N//m^(2)`
D. `2xx10^(4)N//m^(2)`

Answer

C

Explanation

`k=-(dp)/((drho//rho)) therefore dp=k(d rho)/(rho)`
`dp=(2xx10^(9)xx0.1)/(100)=2xx10^(6)N//m^(2).`
