What is the relationship between the isothermal bulk modulus $E_\theta$ and the adiabatic bulk modulus $E_\phi$? (where $\gamma = C_p/C_v$)

  • A
    $E_\theta = \gamma E_\phi$
  • B
    $E_\phi = \gamma E_\theta$
  • C
    $E_\theta = \gamma / E_\phi$
  • D
    $E_\theta = \gamma^2 E_\phi$

Consider a fluid in a container. Let the density of the fluid at the surface and at depth $H$ be $\rho_0$ and $\rho$ respectively. The bulk modulus of the fluid is $B_0$. If $\rho = \frac{\rho_0}{1 - \frac{\rho g H}{B_0}}$, find the constant $\alpha$ in the expression $\rho = \frac{\rho_0}{1 + \alpha \rho g H}$ (Assume $\frac{\rho - \rho_0}{\rho_0} \ll 1$).
