Stress, Strain, and Elastic Modulus (Problem 49)

A farmer making grape juice fills a glass bottle to the brim and caps it tightly. The juice expands more than the glass when it warms up, in such a way that the volume increases by 0.20%. Calculate the force exerted by the juice per square centimeter if its bulk modulus is assuming the bottle does not break.
