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

Step-by-step solution

Bulk modulus, K=2 10^9 ~N / m ^2 Change in volume, V=0.1 % of initial volume =0.1 % of V= V 0.1 100 =V 10⁻³ K= p V V 2 10^9= p V V 10⁻³ p=2 10^9 10⁻³=2 10^6 ~N / m ^2
