The difference in length between two rods $A$ and $B$ is $60 \text{ cm}$ at all temperatures. If $\alpha_{A} = 18 \times 10^{-6} /^{\circ}\text{C}$ and $\alpha_{B} = 27 \times 10^{-6} /^{\circ}\text{C}$,the lengths of the two rods are:

  • A
    $l_{A} = 200 \text{ cm}, l_{B} = 140 \text{ cm}$
  • B
    $l_{A} = 180 \text{ cm}, l_{B} = 120 \text{ cm}$
  • C
    $l_{A} = 160 \text{ cm}, l_{B} = 100 \text{ cm}$
  • D
    $l_{A} = 120 \text{ cm}, l_{B} = 60 \text{ cm}$
