A

0.01

B

0.06

C

0.02

D

0.03

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
(c) The pressure exerted by a 3000 m column of water on the bottom layer is
`P=hrhog3000xx1000xx10=3xx10^(7)N/m^(2)`
Fractional compression `(DeltaV)/(V)` is
`(DeltaV)/(V)=(P)/(B)=(3xx10^(7))/(2.2xx10^(9))=1.36xx10^(-2)=1.36%`
