Answer

$4.4\times10^{-6}m$

Work Step by Step

Please find the attached image first. Here we use equation 10.18 $F=S(\frac{\Delta X}{L_{0}})A$ to find the relative displacement of the upper surface of the block. $F=S(\frac{\Delta X}{L_{0}})A=\gt \Delta X=\frac{FL_{0}}{SA}$ $ \Delta X=\frac{(770\space N)(0.04\space m)}{(3.5\times10^{10}N/m^{2})(0.01\space m)(0.02\space m)}=4.4\times10^{-6}m$ So, the relative displacement of the upper surface of the block = $4.4\times10^{-6}m$
