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

Official answer
(1)
0.$\displaystyle 25$ cm
