Q 1 :    

If average depth of an ocean is 4000m and the bulk modulus of water is 2×109 Nm-2, then fractional compression VV of water at the bottom of ocean is α×10-2. The value of α is ______ .(Given, g=10ms-2,ρ=1000kg m-3)                      [2024]



(2)        B=ΔP(ΔVV)

            -(ΔVV)=ρghB=1000×10×40002×109

            =2×10-2[-ve sign represents compression]

 



Q 2 :    

The depth below the surface of sea to which a rubber ball be taken so as to decrease its volume by 0.02% is ______ m.    

(Take density of sea water=103kgm-3,Bulk modulus of rubber=9×108Nm-2,and g=10ms-2)                      [2024]



(18)      β=-ΔPΔVVΔP=-βΔVV 

            ρgh=-βΔVV

           103×10×h=-9×108×(-0.02100)h=18m
