Explanation

• The reciprocal of bulk modulus is called compressibility.
• Formula: Compressibility = 1 / Bulk Modulus
• Bulk modulus measures resistance to compression.
• Symbol: β = 1/K.
• SI unit: Pa⁻¹ (per Pascal).
• Higher bulk modulus means lower compressibility

Explanation

• The SI unit of electric current is Ampere (A).
• Electric current measures the flow of electric charge.
• Defined using the elementary charge (e = 1.602176634 × 10⁻¹⁹ C).
• Named after: André-Marie Ampère (scientist).
• 1 Ampere = 1 Coulomb per second (1 A = 1 C/s).

Explanation

• The speed of sound is maximum in solids 
• Because particles are tightly packed, allowing faster vibration transfer.
• In iron, sound travels around 5120 m/s,
• Much faster than in air (343 m/s) or water (1482 m/s).
