    The pressure required to stop the increase in volume of a copper block when it is heated from\[50{}^\circ C\]to\[70{}^\circ C\]. Coefficient of linear expansion of copper is\[8\times {{10}^{-6}}/{}^\circ C\]and bulk modulus of elasticity\[=3.6\times {{10}^{11}}N/{{m}^{2}},\]is:

    A)  \[2.8\times {{10}^{5}}N/{{m}^{2}}\]

    B)         \[1.72\times {{10}^{8}}N/{{m}^{2}}\]

    C)  \[6.3\times {{10}^{3}}N/{{m}^{2}}\]

    D)         \[8\times {{10}^{-6}}N/{{m}^{2}}\]

    E)  \[1.57\times {{10}^{4}}N/{{m}^{2}}\]

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    \[B=\frac{Change\text{ }in\text{ }pressure}{Volume\text{ }strain}=\frac{p}{\gamma ({{t}_{2}}-{{t}_{1}})}\] \[\therefore \]  \[p={{B}_{\gamma }}({{t}_{2}}-{{t}_{1}})\] Given,    \[B=3.6\times {{10}^{11}}N/{{m}^{2}},\] \[\gamma =3\alpha =3\times 8\times {{10}^{-6}}=24\times {{10}^{-6}}/{}^\circ C\] \[{{t}_{2}}-{{t}_{1}}=70-50=20{}^\circ C\] \[\therefore \]\[p=(3.6\times {{10}^{11}})(24\times {{10}^{-6}})(20)\] \[=1.728\times {{10}^{8}}N/{{m}^{2}}\]
