Question

Assertion Incompressible liquids have finite value of bulk modulus of elasticity.
Reason Compressibility is inverse of bulk modulus of elasticity.
A. If both Assertion and Reason are true and Reason is the correct explanation of Assertion.
B. If both Assertion and Reason are true but Reason is not the correct explanation of Assertion.
C. If Assertion is true but Reason is false.
D. If Assertion is false but Reason is true.

Answer 1

Correct Answer - D
(d) Bulk modulus is B `=(-Deltap)/(DeltaV//V)`
For incompressible fluids, `DeltaV=0`
`therefore " "B=oo`
Apart form this, it is true to say that compressibility is inverse of bulk modulus of elasticity.
