WHAT DOES BULK MODULUS MEAN IN ENGLISH?

Bulk modulus

The bulk modulus of a substance measures the substance's resistance to uniform compression. It is defined as the ratio of the infinitesimal pressure increase to the resulting relative decrease of the volume. Its SI unit is the pascal, and its dimensional form is M1L−1T−2.

Definition of bulk modulus in the English dictionary

The definition of bulk modulus in the dictionary is a coefficient of elasticity of a substance equal to minus the ratio of the applied stress to the resulting fractional change in volume in a specified reference state K.
