The approximate depth of an ocean is 2700 m. The compressibility of water is and density of water is . What fractional compression of water will be obtained at the bottom of the ocean ?

Answer: (2)

Solution

Bulk modulus , so the fractional compression is since compressibility . Pressure at depth : $P = ρ g h =
