    Work done in Compressing a fluid in a piston (Bulk Modulus)‏

    Work done Thanks for your response. Using your steps, the work done, P = F/A, F = PXA, and Work done = F x Distance therefore, Workdone = PXAXdistance = P X volume change. Bulk modulus gives P required per unit area. Here in lies my problem. What area should I choose. Surface Area of the...

    Work done in Compressing a fluid in a piston (Bulk Modulus)‏

    Homework Statement I am trying to solve one theoretical problem. If I had an Iron piston cylinder with radius of 1 cm, such that it contains 1 liter of water(therefore about 318 cm tall), ( say Bulk Modulus of water is 1 GPascal), How much work(in joules) will be required to depress...
