The length of a metal wire is $l_{1}$ when the tension in it is $T_{1}$,and it is $l_{2}$ when the tension is $T_{2}$. The natural length of the wire is -

  • A
    $\sqrt{l_{1} l_{2}}$
  • B
    $\frac{l_{1}+l_{2}}{2}$
  • C
    $\frac{l_{1} T_{2}-l_{2} T_{1}}{T_{2}-T_{1}}$
  • D
    $\frac{l_{1} T_{2}+l_{2} T_{1}}{T_{2}+T_{1}}$
