Q78 / 90 · JEE Main 2018 (08 Apr) · Physics
A solid sphere of radius r made of a soft material of bulk modulus K is surrounded by a liquid in a cylindrical container. A massless piston of area floats on the surface of the liquid, covering entire cross-section of cylindrical container. When a mass m is placed on the surface of the piston to compress the liquid, the fractional decrement in the radius of the sphere , is:
- A
- B
- C
- Correct answerD
Solution
For sphere,
.
.
Hence, the correct answer is option: 'D'.
