Speed of sound in mercury at a certain temperature is 1450 m/s . Given the density of mercury as `13.6 xx 10^(3) kg//m`, the bulk modulus for mercury is

A

`2.86xx10^(10)N//m^(3)`

B

`3.86xx10^(10)N//m^(3)`

C

`4.86xx10^(10N//m^(3)`

D

`5.86xx10^(10)N//m^(3)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
`V=sqrt((K)/(rho))" "therefore K=V^(2)rho=2.86x10^(10)N//m^(3)`.
