(A) Given: Force $F = 50 \text{ kN} = 50 \times 10^3 \text{ N}$.Dimensions: $40 \text{ mm} \times 20 \text{ mm} = 40 \times 10^{-3} \text{ m} \times 20 \times 10^{-3} \text{ m} = 800 \times 10^{-6} \text{ m}^2$.Shear Modulus $G = 40 \times 10^9 \text{ Nm}^{-2}$.Stress $\sigma = \frac{F}{A} = \frac{50 \times 10^3}{800 \times 10^{-6}} = \frac{50 \times 10^9}{800} = 0.0625 \times 10^9 \text{ Nm}^{-2} = 6.25 \times 10^7 \text{ Nm}^{-2}$.Strain $\epsilon = \frac{\text{Stress}}{G} = \frac{6.25 \times 10^7}{40 \times 10^9} = \frac{6.25}{40} \times 10^{-2} = 0.15625 \times 10^{-2} = 1.5625 \times 10^{-3}$.Thus,the strain is approximately $1.56 \times 10^{-3}$.

$A$ force $F$ of the same magnitude is applied tangentially on the upper and lower faces of a cube in opposite directions. The side of the cube is $L$. The upper face of the cube shifts parallel to itself by a distance $x_{1}$. If another cube of the same material but with side $2L$ is subjected to the same condition,then the displacement of the top layer is:

$A$ rectangular block of size $10\,cm \times 8\,cm \times 5\,cm$ is kept in three different positions $P, Q,$ and $R$ in turn as shown in the figure. In each case,the shaded area is rigidly fixed and a definite force $F$ is applied tangentially to the opposite face to deform the block. The displacement of the upper face will be
