19. Fluid Mechanics / Density / Problem 1

Suppose a 1 m3 cube of ice is transported without melting from Mount Everest to a location at sea level. The atmospheric pressures at the peak of Mount Everest and at sea level are 0.31 atm and 1 atm, respectively. Determine the change in the volume of ice (ΔV). Take the compressibility k of ice as 5.00 × 10-10 Pa-1.
