The bulk modulus of a gas is `6xx10^(3) N//m^(2)`. The additional pressure needed to reduce the volume of the gas by `10%` is

A

`300 N//m^(2)`

B

`400 N//m^(2)`

C

`1000 N//m^(2)`

D

`600 N//m^(2)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D
`K = (dp)/(dv//v) :. K(dv)/(v)`
`= 6 xx 10^(3) xx 10^(-1) = 600 N//m^(2)`

Assertion : A given mass of a gas is subjected to an external pressure of 0.5xx10^(10) N//m^(2) , the bulk modulus of the gas is 0.5xx10^(10) N//m^(2) . The ratio of the density of the gas before and after applying the external pressure is 1 : 1 Reason : Pressure is inversely proportional to density of gas and bulk modulus is inversely proportional to change in volume
