Bulk modulus Definition and 56 Threads

I am getting the bulk modulus from fitting the equation of states and calculating the elastic constant. It seems that there is some relationship between bulk modulus B and elastic constant Cij, B=Cij/9,where i,j run from 1 to 3. But my result is far away from this, say B=50 from fitting EOS and...

The questions is that The equation of state (the equation relating pressure, volume, and temperature) for an ideal gas is pV=nRT, where n and R are constants. a.) Show that if the gas is compressed while the temperature T is held constant, the bulk modulus is equal to the pressure. b.)...

I am doing a project on water hammer. I need the formula for the bulk modulus of a liquid not just for water. Can anyone provide me with the formula?

Anybody knows the formula for bulk modulus? Need answers ASAP

An incerase of pressure of one atmosphere, causes a reduction of 49*10^-^6m^3 in a volume of 1m^3 Give the value of the bulk-modulus of water. Calculate the denisty of the water of a lake, at a depth of 200 metres, assuming that the density of water is 1000kgm^-^3 at the surface...

When I calculate the Bulk modulus for a metall with the free electron model I get a value that is twice the experimental value. I find this strange. With the free electron model i don't get the contribution from the ion cores and the bound electrons, right? Do these have a negavite...
