the average depth of indian ocean is about 3000m.Thevalue of frictional compression `((DeltaV)/V)` of water at the bottom of the ocean is (given that the bulk modulus of water is `(2.2xx10^(9)Nm^(-2),g=9.8ms^(-2),PH_(2)O=1000kg.m^(-3))`

Options

A. `3.4xx10^(-2)`
B. `1.34xx10^-2`
C. `4.13xx10^-2`
D. `13.4xx10^-2`

Answer

B

Explanation

`(Delta V)/V=p/k`
`(h rho g)/k = (3xx10^(3)xx10^(3)xx9.8)/(2.2xx10^(9))`
`cong 1.34xx10^(-2)`.
