When water freezes, its volume increases by 9.05% (that is, δv / v0 = 9.05 × 10-2). what force per unit area is water capable of exerting on a container when it freezes? (it is acceptable to use the bulk modulus of water, b = 2.2 × 109 n/m2, for this problem.) give your answer in n/cm2.

P = 1.99 10⁸ Pa

Explanation:

The definition of the bulk module is

      B = - P / (ΔV / V)

The negative sign is included for which balk module is positive, P is the pressure and V that volume

They tell us that the variation in volume is 9.05%, that is

    ΔV / V = 9.0Δ5 / 100 = 0.0905

    P = - B DV / V

    P = 2.2 10⁹ (0.0905)

    P = 1.99 10⁸ Pa
