$A$ sheet of steel is $40 \ cm$ long and $5 \ cm$ broad at $0^{\circ} C$. The surface area of the sheet increases by $1.4 \ cm^2$ at $100^{\circ} C$. The coefficient of linear expansion of steel is:

  • A
    $1.9 \times 10^{-5} /^{\circ} C$
  • B
    $2.4 \times 10^{-5} /^{\circ} C$
  • C
    $3.5 \times 10^{-5} /^{\circ} C$
  • D
    $7 \times 10^{-5} /^{\circ} C$
