1.	The compressibility of water is 5xx10^(-10)m^(2)N^(-1). Find the decrease in volume of 1 litof waterunder a pressure of 2xx10^(6)Pa.
Answer» Solution :Caparessibility `=(1)/("BULK modulus")=("volumetric strain")/("volumetric stress")` `:.(5)/(10^(10))=(Delta//V)/(2xx10^(6)): (DeltaV)/(V)=(5)/(10^(10))xx2xx10^(6)` `:.DeltaV=(5)/(10^(10))xx2xx10^(6)XX1=(1)/(10^(3))l` `:.` Decreases of volume of water `=1//10^(3)l or l.c.c`
