Select the correct option. B is bulk modulus.(a) Bgas > Bliquid > Bsolid(b) Bliquid > Bgas> Bsolid(c) Bsolid > Bliquid > Bgas(d) Bliquid > Bgas > BsolidI have been asked this question in quiz.This question is from Solids Mechanical Properties topic in portion Mechanical Properties of Solids of Physics – Class 11

Answer»

Right answer is (C) Bsolid > Bliquid > Bgas

To ELABORATE: Bulk modulus is the inverse of compressibility. Solids are the least compressible, FOLLOWED by liquids and then gases being the most compressible. THUS solids have the maximum B, and liquids the least.
