NEET Physics Bulk Modulus MCQ Question

Type: MCQ-numerical-Medium-Class 11

What is the bulk modulus of water if the initial volume is 100.0 liters and the final volume is 100.5 liters when subjected to a pressure increase of 100.0 atm (1 atm = 1.013 × 10^5 Pa)?

A

02 × 10^9 Pa

B

5.07 × 10^9 Pa

C

01 × 10^8 Pa

D

04 × 10^8 Pa

Correct Answer

Option A

Detailed Explanation

Bulk modulus (K) is computed using K = -ΔP / (ΔV/V₀). With ΔP = 100.0 atm × 1.013 × 10^5 Pa/atm, ΔV = 0.5 liters, and V₀ = 100.0 liters, the calculation yields approximately 2.02 × 10^9 Pa.
