Volume $=(\text { side })^3$

$v=(a)^3$

So $\frac{\Delta V}{V}=\frac{3 \Delta a}{a}$  $\left\{\operatorname{given} \frac{\Delta a}{a}=-2 \%\right\}$

$\therefore \frac{\Delta v}{v}=3 \times-2 \quad \text { Side decreases solve used (-)ve sign }$

$=-6 \%$

We know

$\frac{\Delta v}{v}=-\frac{P}{B}$

Substituting value of $\Delta v / v$

$-\frac{6}{100}=-\frac{P}{B}$

So bulk strain produced is $0.06$
