Formula for bulk modulus of volume of elasticity?
K(bulk modulus of elasticity)=-{[Pressure x volume]/change in volume}
Is the bulk modulus of elasticity increases with pressure?
Yes, the bulk modulus of elasticity increases with pressure. The bulk modulus measures the resistance of a material to changes in volume under applied pressure. As pressure increases, the material becomes less compressible and therefore the bulk modulus increases.
What is the modulus of elasticity in stretched wire?
Young's modulus
What is the types of modulus of elasticity?
1. Young's modulus of elasticity, E, also called elastic modulus in tension 2. Flexural modulus, usually the same as the elastic modulus for uniform isotropic materials 3. Shear modulus, also known as modulus of rigidity, G ; G = E/2/(1 + u) for isotropic materials, where u = poisson ratio 4. Dynamic modulus 5. Storage modulus 6. Bulk modulus The first three are most commonly used; the last three are for more specialized use
What is the modulus of elasticity of water?
Pure de-aired water has a bulk modulus equal to approximately 2.2 GPa. There is a common misconception that fluids are totally incompressible, however as can be seen from the above this is not true (if it were, the bulk modulus would be infinitely high). It is reasonable to state that water is highly resistant to compression however. It should also be noted that the presence of dissolved gasses in water can significantly reduce this value so consider carefully the application or system being modelled before choosing an elastic modulus for water or any other fluid.
