The bulk modulus of a liquid of density 8000kgm−3 is 2×109Nm−2. The speed of sound in that liquid is (in ms−1)
Estimate the change in the density of water in ocean at a depth of 400 m below the surface. The density of water at the surface = 1030 kgm−3 and the bulk modulus of water = 2×109Nm−2.
In a liquid with density 1300 kgm3, longitudinal waves with frequency 400 Hz are found to have wavelength 8.00 m. Calculate the bulk modulus of the liquid.
