For a constant hydraulic stress on an object, the fractional change in the object’s volume $(\Delta V/V)$ and its bulk modulus $(B)$ are related as

  • A

    $\frac{{\Delta V}}{V} \propto B$

  • B

    $\frac{{\Delta V}}{V} \propto \frac{1}{B}$

  • C

    $\frac{{\Delta V}}{V} \propto B^2$

  • D

    $\frac{{\Delta V}}{V} \propto B^{-2}$
