Data:-
h=200 m, dv=0.1%
To find:- k=?
Solution:-
Increase in pressure on ball
$d_p=W_w\times h$
$=9810\times 200$
$1.96\times 10^6 N/m^2$
Also,
Decrease in volume = 0.1%
$-\frac{dv}{v}=\frac{0.1}{100}$
Bulk Modulus (k)
$k=\frac{dP}{-\frac{dv}{v}}=\frac{1.962\times 10^6}{\frac{0.1}{100}}$
$k=1.962\times 10^9 N/m^2$
