A certain pressure \(P\) is applied to \(1\) litre of water and \(2\) litre of a liquid separately. Water gets compressed to \(0.01 \%\) whereas the liquid gets compressed to \(0.03 \%\). The ratio of Bulk modulus of water to that of the liquid is \(\frac{3}{x}\). The value of \(x\) is \(...........\)

  1. A \(0.5\)
  2. B \(1\)
  3. C \(2\)
  4. D \(3\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \(1\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(B_{\text {water }}=\frac{-\Delta P}{\left(\frac{\Delta V}{V}\right)}=\frac{-\Delta P}{\frac{0.01}{100}}\) \(B_{\text {liquid }}=\frac{-\Delta P}{\frac{0.03}{100}}\) \(\frac{B_{\text {water }}}{B_{\text {liquid }}}=3\) \(x=1\)
