Question

31 A solid sphere of radius 'R' made of material of bulk modulus B
is surrounded by a diquid in a cylindrical container A massless
piston of area 'A' floats at the surface of the liquid,Find the
fractional change in the radius of the liquid Find the fractional
change in the radius of the sphere (dR/R), when a mass M is placed
on the piston to compress the liquid

Dear
Student,
Please find below
the solution to the asked query:

Since, we kow that:B =-FVA∆VV = 43πR3dV =∆V = 4πR2dRB = -F×43πR3A×4πR2dRdRR = Mg3AB
