NEET Physics Stress & Strain Assertion Reason Question
Assertion (A): Bulk modulus is relevant only for solids because it refers to the change in volume under uniform stress. | Reason (R): Bulk modulus is the ratio of hydraulic stress to the corresponding hydraulic strain and is always positive.
Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A.
Both A and R are true but R is not the correct explanation of A.
A is true but R is false.
A is false but R is true.
Correct Answer
Detailed Explanation
The assertion is false because bulk modulus is relevant for solids, liquids, and gases, not just solids. The reason is true as it correctly states the definition of bulk modulus.
