Compute the bulk modulus of water from the following data: Initial volume $= 100.0 \; L$,Pressure increase $= 100.0 \; atm$ $(1 \; atm = 1.013 \times 10^{5} \; Pa)$,Final volume $= 100.5 \; L$. Compare the bulk modulus of water with that of air (at constant temperature). Explain in simple terms why the ratio is so large.

$A$ bottle has an opening of radius $a$ and length $b$. $A$ cork of length $b$ and radius $(a + \Delta a)$,where $(\Delta a << a)$,is compressed to fit into the opening completely (see figure). If the bulk modulus of the cork is $B$ and the frictional coefficient between the bottle and the cork is $\mu$,then the force needed to push the cork into the bottle is:
