1. A liquid compressed in a container has a volume of 5 liters at a pressure of 1 Mpa and a

volume of 0.995 liter at a pressure of 2 Mpa. The bulk modulus of elasticity (E B) of the
liquid is?

2. Water in a hydraulic press, initially at 137 kPa abs, is subjected to a pressure of 170,000
kPa abs. Using (EB) = 2.5 GPa, determine the percentage decrease in the volume of water.

3. If 6 m3 of an ideal gas at 33o C and 200 kPa abs is compressed to 2 m3,

a) What is the resulting pressure assuming isothermal conditions.
b) What would have been the pressure and temperature if the process is isentropic.
Use k = 1.3.
c)
4. If 12 m3 of nitrogen at 30 oC and 125 kPa abs is permitted to expand isothermally to 30
m3. a) what is the resulting pressure? b) What would the pressure and temperature have
been if the process is isentropic?

5. A rigid steel container is partially filled with a liquid at 15 atm. The volume of the liquid
is 1.23200 L. At a pressure of 30 atm, the volume of the liquid is 1.23100 L. Find the
average bulk modulus of elasticity of the liquid over the given range of pressure if the
temperature after compression is allowed to return to its initial value. What is the
coefficient of compressibility?
