A spherical ball contracts in volume by 0.01% when subjected to a normal uniform pressure of 100 atmospheres. Calculate the bulk modulus of the meterial.

Options

A. `10xx10^(12)"dyne"//cm^(2)`
B. `1.096 xx 10^(11) N//m^(2)`
C. `0.196xx10^(11)N//m^(2)`
D. `10.96 xx 10^(11) N//m^(2)`

Answer

C

Explanation

`K=(P)/(Delta v//v)=(100xx1.01xx10^(6))/(0.01//100)`
`=10^(12)"dyne"//cm^(2)`
