The compressibility of a material is defined as:

Bulk modulus of water is $2 \times 10^9 \ N/m^2$. The pressure required to increase the volume of water by $0.1 \%$ in $N/m^2$ is:

Explain why solids are the least compressible and gases are the most compressible based on the bulk modulus.

The Mariana Trench is located in the Pacific Ocean,and at one place it is nearly $11 \; km$ beneath the surface of the water. The water pressure at the bottom of the trench is about $1.1 \times 10^{8} \; Pa$. $A$ steel ball of initial volume $0.32 \; m^{3}$ is dropped into the ocean and falls to the bottom of the trench. What is the change in the volume of the ball when it reaches the bottom? (Bulk modulus of steel $B = 1.6 \times 10^{11} \; N/m^{2}$)

The normal density of a material is $\rho$ and its bulk modulus of elasticity is $K$. The magnitude of increase in density of the material,when a pressure $P$ is applied uniformly on all sides,will be

It is found that an increase in pressure of $100 \, kPa$ causes a certain volume of water to decrease by $5 \times 10^{-3}$ percent of its original volume. Then the speed of sound in the water is about .... $m/s$ (density of water $10^3 \, kg/m^3$)
