I'm not understanding the solution. Please explain it clearly.

Bulk modulu is the ratio of direct stress to the corresponding volumetric strain.

SRAVAN said: 6 years ago

No, it is wrong because bulk modulus is the ratio of shearstress to the shear strain.

Raj said: 6 years ago

Block modules = sherstress/shearstrain.

Here, K=dp/(-dv/v).

JOGESWARA RAO said: 5 years ago

K = direct stress/volumetric strain.
