- A3 108 Nm 2
- B9 108 Nm 2
- C6 108 Nm 2
- D12 108 Nm 2
View written solutionFree
Correct answer: C
- Use the definition of bulk modulus
The bulk modulus is given by
For magnitude purposes,
- Substitute the given values
Given:
Volume reduction , so
Hence,
- Calculate
So,
- Match with the options
This corresponds to Option C.
- Comparison with stored answer
Stored correct answer: C
My derived answer: C
So, they agree.
