$A$ wire of length $L$ and radius $r$ is clamped rigidly at one end. When the other end of the wire is pulled by a force $F$,its length increases by $5\,cm$. Another wire of the same material of length $4L$ and radius $4r$ is pulled by a force $4F$ under the same conditions. The increase in length of this wire is $....cm$.
