In a liquid with a density of 1500 kg/m3, longitudinal waves with a frequency of 410 Hz are found to have a wavelength of 7.80 m. Calculate the bulk modulus of the liquid.

Respuesta :

Answer:

The bulk modulus of the liquid is 1.534 x 10¹⁰ N/m²

Explanation:

Given;

density of the liquid, ρ = 1500 kg/m³

frequency of the wave, F = 410 Hz

wavelength of the sound, λ = 7.80 m

The speed of the wave is calculated as;

v = Fλ

v = 410 x 7.8

v = 3,198 m/s

The bulk modulus of the liquid is calculated as;

[tex]V = \sqrt{\frac{B}{\rho} } \\\\V^2 = \frac{B}{\rho}\\\\B = V^2 \rho\\\\B = (3,198 \ m/s)^2 \times 1500 \ kg/m^3\\\\B = 1.534 \ \times 10^{10} \ N/m^2[/tex]

Therefore, the bulk modulus of the liquid is 1.534 x 10¹⁰ N/m²
