The volume change of a solid copper cube 10 cm on an edge, when subject to a pressure of 7 Mpa is (Bulk modulus of copper `=140GPa`)A. `5xx10^-2cm^3`B. `10xx10^-2cm^3`C. `15xx10^4cm^3`D. `20xx10^-2cm^3`

Answer» Correct Answer - A
Here, `L=10cm=10xx10^-2m`
`P=7MPa=7xx10^6Pa`
`B=140GPa=140xx10^9Pa`
As `B=(P)/((triangleV)/(V))`
`triangleV=(PV)/(B)=(PL^3)/(B)=((7xx10^6Pa)(10xx10^-2m)^3)/(140xx10^9Pa)`
`=5xx10%-8m^3=5xx10^-2cm^3`
