$A$ thin copper wire of length $l$ meters is heated by $10^{\circ}C$,resulting in a $2\%$ increase in its length. If a square copper sheet of side $l$ meters is heated by the same $10^{\circ}C$,what is the percentage change in its area?

  • A
    $4$
  • B
    $8$
  • C
    $16$
  • D

The difference in length between two rods $A$ and $B$ is $60 \ cm$ at all temperatures. If $\alpha_A = 18 \times 10^{-6} /^{\circ}C$ and $\alpha_B = 27 \times 10^{-6} /^{\circ}C$,then the lengths of rod $A$ and rod $B$ at $0^{\circ}C$ are respectively:
