A12-l volume of oil is subjected to a pressure change, which produces a volume strain on the oil of -3.0 ã— 10-4. the bulk modulus of the oil is 6.0 ã— 109 n/m2 and is independent of the pressure. by how many milliliters does this pressure reduce the volume of the oil?

The volume is reduced by 3.6 milliliters.

Explanation:

In order to find the change of volume, we can use the definition of Volumetric strain which is the negative ratio of the change of volume with respect the original volume.

The negative sign shows that the volume is decreasing. Solving for the change of volume we get

Thus we can replace the given information of the volume strain on oil for a volume of oil, so we get:

That give us

We can finally multiply by 1000 milliliters per liter to find the reduction in volume of oil.

Thus the volume is reduced by 3.6 milliliters.
