If the pressure of gas is increased from 1.01×10⁵ Pa to 1.165×10⁵ Pa and volume

If the pressure of gas is increased from 1.01×10⁵ Pa to 1.165×10⁵ Pa and volume is decreases by 10% at constant temperature then the bulk modulus of the gas is

Options

(a) 15.5×10⁵ Pa
(b) 1.4×10⁵ Pa
(c) 1.55×10⁵ Pa
(d) 0.0155×10⁵ Pa

Correct Answer:

1.55×10⁵ Pa

Explanation:

Bulk modulus = normal stress / volumetric strain
= (F/A) / (-∆V/V) = -(PV / ∆V)
For an isothermal process, PV = constant
So, PdV + VdP = 0 ⇒ (-VdP / dV) = P
B = (-VdP / dV) = (100 / 10) × (1.165 × 10⁵ – 1.01 × 10⁵)
= 1.55 × 10⁵ Pa.
