As shown in the figure,forces of $10^5\,N$ each are applied in opposite directions on the upper and lower faces of a cube of side $10\,cm$,shifting the upper face parallel to itself by $0.5\,cm$. If the side of another cube of the same material is $20\,cm$,then under similar conditions as above,the displacement will be ......... $cm$.

$A$ cylindrical rod of length $1 \ m$ and radius $4 \ cm$ is mounted vertically. It is subjected to a shear force of $10^5 \ N$ at the top. Considering infinitesimally small displacement in the upper edge,the angular displacement $\theta$ of the rod axis from its original position would be: (Shear modulus,$G = 10^{10} \ N/m^2$)
