Elastic Modulie
Question

Assertion: Bulk modulus of elasticity (K) represents incompressibility of the material

Reason : Bulk modulus of elasticity is proportional to change in pressure.

Easy
Solution

Bulk modulus of elasticity measures how good the body is to regain its original voluume on being compressed. Therefore, it represents incompressibiltiy of the material, K = -PVV where P is increase in pressure, V is change in volume.
