Q.

A solid sphere of radius R, made up of a material of bulk modulus K is surrounded by a liquid in a cylindrical container. A massless piston of area A floats on the surface of the liquid. When a mass M is placed on the piston to compress the liquid, the fractional change in the radius of the sphere is

Detailed Solution

Change in pressure due to placing of mass on piston is Δp=MgAFrom bulk modulus definition K=−dpdV/V           dVV=ΔpK=MgAKFrom  V=43πr3dVV=3dRR⇒dRR=13dVV=Mg3AK
