The increase in the pressure required to decrease the volume $(\Delta V)$ of water is $6.3 \times 10^7 \text{ N/m}^2$. The percentage decrease in the volume is . . . . . . . (Bulk modulus of water = $2.1 \times 10^9 \text{ N/m}^2$.) (in $\%$)

If a rubber ball is taken to a depth of $200 \ m$ in a pool,its volume decreases by $0.1 \%$. If the density of the water is $1 \times 10^3 \ kg/m^3$ and $g = 10 \ m/s^2$,then the bulk modulus (volume elasticity) in $N/m^2$ will be:

The density of a metal at normal pressure is $\rho$. Its density when it is subjected to an excess pressure $p$ is $\rho^{\prime}$. If $B$ is the Bulk modulus of the metal,the ratio $\frac{\rho^{\prime}}{\rho}$ is:

How much pressure (in atm) is needed to compress a sample of water by $0.4 \%$ (in $\text{ atm}$)? (Assume, Bulk modulus of water $\approx 2.0 \times 10^9 \text{ Pa}$)

The average depth of the Indian Ocean is about $3000\; m$. Calculate the fractional compression,$\Delta V / V,$ of water at the bottom of the ocean,given that the bulk modulus of water is $2.2 \times 10^{9}\; N m^{-2}$. (Take $g = 10\; m s^{-2}$)
