2.2 x 10^9 Pa
Explain why the ratio of the bulk modulus of water to air is so large.
Explain why the ratio of the bulk modulus of water to air is so large.
The large ratio is due to the higher bulk modulus of water compared to air, which is a result of the closer packing of water molecules and stronger intermolecular forces in water.
