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 $4 L$ and radius $4\,r$ is pulled by a force $4\,F$ under same conditions. The increase in length of this wire is $....cm$.
