What is the bulk modulus of the oil in units of psi


The load on a 2 inch diameter hydraulic cylinder increases from 10000lb to 15000lb. Due to compressibility of oil, the piston retracts 0.01 inch. If the volume of oil under compression is 10 in^3 , what is the bulk modulus of the oil in units of psi?
