Bulk modulus (K) measures resistance to uniform compression: K = -V(dP/dV), inverse of compressibility.

Wejście
Water: K ≈ 2.2 GPa (compressible)
Wynik
Steel: K ≈ 160 GPa (incompressible)
Water ~70× more compressible
Częste błędy do unikania
- ✕Confusing with Young's modulus (uniaxial)
- ✕Not accounting for pressure effects on K
Często zadawane pytania
How does bulk modulus relate to speed of sound?
Sound speed = √(K/ρ); higher K means faster sound.
