A uniform cube is subjected to volume compression. If each side is decreased by 1% , then bulk strain is

A

0.01

B

0.03

C

0.02

D

0.06

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D
(d) If side of the cube is L, then `V=L^(3)`
`implies (dV)/(V) =3(dL)/(L)`
`therefore` % change in volume `=3xx` (% change in length )`=3xx2%=6%`
`therefore` Bulk strain, `(DeltaV)/(V)=0.06`
