(b) Bulk modulus, $B = - {V_0}\frac{{\Delta p}}{{\Delta V}} \Rightarrow \Delta V = - {V_0}\frac{{\Delta p}}{B}$
==> $V = {V_0}\left[ {1 - \frac{{\Delta p}}{B}} \right]$
 Density, $\rho = {\rho _0}{\left[ {1 - \frac{{\Delta p}}{B}} \right]^{ - 1}} = {\rho _0}\left[ {1 + \frac{{\Delta p}}{B}} \right]$
where, $\Delta p = p - {p_0} = h{\rho _0}g$
= pressure difference between depth and surface of ocean
 $\rho = {\rho _0}\left[ {1 + \frac{{{\rho _0}gy}}{B}} \right]$(As $h = y)$
