JEE Main Physics question
A solid sphere of radius made up of a material of bulk modulus is surrounded by a liquid in a cylindrical container. A massless piston of area floats on the surface of the liquid. When a mass is placed on the piston to compress the liquid, the fractional change in the radius of the sphere is
Answer: (B)
Solution
The piston transmits an additional pressure to the liquid, which uniformly compresses the sphere. By definition \dfrac{Δ p}${Δ
