The average depth of Indian ocean is about 3000 ~m . The value of fractional compression ( V V ) of water at the bottom of the ocean is (given that the bulk modulus of water is 2.2 10^9 Nm ⁻², g=9.8, _ H ₂ O =1000 ~kg . m ⁻³ )
Options
- A3.4 10⁻²
- B1.34 10⁻²
- C4.13 10⁻²
- D13.4 10⁻²
Correct answer
B. 1.34 10⁻²
Step-by-step solution
We have, aligned & V V = h g B [ B = P V / V V V = P B = h g B ] & V V = 3 10^3 10^3 9.8 2.2 10^9 =1.34 10⁻² aligned
