The length of a metallic rod is $5 \, m$ at $0^{\circ}C$ and becomes $5.01 \, m$ on heating up to $100^{\circ}C$. The coefficient of linear expansion of the metal is:

  • A
    $2.33 \times 10^{-5} \, ^{\circ}C^{-1}$
  • B
    $6.0 \times 10^{-5} \, ^{\circ}C^{-1}$
  • C
    $4.0 \times 10^{-5} \, ^{\circ}C^{-1}$
  • D
    $2.0 \times 10^{-5} \, ^{\circ}C^{-1}$
