Initial volume $V=(\text { side })^3=\left(10 \times 10^{-2}\right)^3$

$P=7 \times 10^6 \,Pa$

$B=140 \times 10^9 \,Pa$

We know

$\frac{-\Delta V}{V}=\frac{P}{B} \quad\{-\Delta V=\text { Contraction in volume }\}$

$\frac{-\Delta V}{10^{-3}}=\frac{7 \times 10^6}{140 \times 10^9}$

$-\Delta V=5 \times 10^{-8} \,m ^3$
