When a pressure of $100$ atmosphere is applied on a spherical ball,its volume reduces by $0.01\%$. The bulk modulus of the material of the ball in $dyne/cm^2$ is:

  • A
    $10 \times 10^{12}$
  • B
    $100 \times 10^{12}$
  • C
    $1 \times 10^{12}$
  • D
    $20 \times 10^{12}$

$A$ cubical solid aluminium (bulk modulus $B = -V \frac{dP}{dV} = 70 \text{ GPa}$) block has an edge length of $1 \text{ m}$ on the surface of the earth. It is kept on the floor of a $5 \text{ km}$ deep ocean. Taking the average density of water $\rho = 10^3 \text{ kg m}^{-3}$ and the acceleration due to gravity $g = 10 \text{ m s}^{-2}$,the change in the edge length of the block in $\text{mm}$ is . . . . .

If the average depth of an ocean is $4000 \ m$ and the bulk modulus of water is $2 \times 10^9 \ N m^{-2}$,then the fractional compression $\frac{\Delta V}{V}$ of water at the bottom of the ocean is $\alpha \times 10^{-2}$. The value of $\alpha$ is . . . . . . (Given,$g=10 \ m s^{-2}, \rho=1000 \ kg m^{-3}$)

Bulk modulus of water is $2 \times 10^9 \ N/m^2$. The pressure required to increase the volume of water by $0.1 \%$ in $N/m^2$ is:
