The increase in the pressure required to decrease the volume ( $\displaystyle \Delta V$ ) of water is $\displaystyle 6.3 \times 10^7 \mathrm{~N} / \mathrm{m}^2$. The percentage decrease in the volume is $\displaystyle \_\_\_\_$.
(Bulk modulus of water $\displaystyle =2.1 \times 10^9 \mathrm{~N} / \mathrm{m}^2$.)
