A liquid whose coefficient of volume expansion is completely fills a sealed metal tank, at negligible pressure. The coefficient of linear expansion of the metal is , and the compressibility of the liquid is k . If the temperature of the system is increased by t , the new pressure of the liquid will be

Options:

Answer:
B
Solution:

Free liquid expansion minus tank volume expansion is (γr-3α)t.

Pressure equals this constrained strain divided by compressibility k.
