Bulk Modulus of Incompressible Liquid

The bulk modulus for an incompressible liquid is :
zero
unity
infinity
between 0 and 1

Solution:

For an incompressible liquid, the volume change \(\Delta V = 0\) for any pressure change \(\Delta P\). Since bulk modulus is given by \(B = -V \frac{\Delta P}{\Delta V}\), dividing by zero results in \(B = \infty\) (infinity).
