The specific heat of a metal at low temperatures varies according to $S = aT^3$,where $a$ is a constant and $T$ is the absolute temperature. The heat energy needed to raise unit mass of the metal from $T = 1 \ K$ to $T = 2 \ K$ is:

  • A
    $3 \ a$
  • B
    $\frac{15 \ a}{4}$
  • C
    $\frac{2 \ a}{3}$
  • D
    $\frac{12 \ a}{5}$
