$A$ bottle has an opening of radius $a$ and length $b$. $A$ cork of length $b$ and radius $(a + \Delta a)$,where $(\Delta a << a)$,is compressed to fit into the opening completely (see figure). If the bulk modulus of the cork is $B$ and the frictional coefficient between the bottle and the cork is $\mu$,then the force needed to push the cork into the bottle is:

  • A
    $(\pi \mu Bb) a$
  • B
    $(2\pi \mu Bb) \Delta a$
  • C
    $(\pi \mu Bb) \Delta a$
  • D
    $(4\pi \mu Bb) \Delta a$
