$A$ hole is drilled in a copper sheet. The diameter of the hole is $4.24 \; cm$ at $27.0 \; ^{\circ}C$. What is the change in the diameter of the hole when the sheet is heated to $227 \; ^{\circ}C$? (Coefficient of linear expansion of copper $\alpha = 1.70 \times 10^{-5} \; K^{-1}$)

  • A
    $3.21 \times 10^{-3} \; cm$
  • B
    $8.96 \times 10^{-1} \; cm$
  • C
    $4.98 \times 10^{-2} \; cm$
  • D
    $1.44 \times 10^{-2} \; cm$
