QUESTION:

Problem 42P

(II) One liter of alcohol (1000 cm3) in a flexible container is carried to the bottom of the sea, where the pressure is 2.6 x 106 N/m2. What will be its volume there?

ANSWER:

Step-by-step solution

Step 1 of 3

V0=1000cm3=1x10-3m3   (the initial volume of the flexible container)

P=2.6x106 N/m2             (the pressure at the bottom of the sea)

B=1x109N/m2                 (the bulk modulus for alcohol)

ΔV=?                             (change in volume of the object under volume stress)

V=?                                (final volume of the gas at the bottom of the sea)
