$A$ clock pendulum having a coefficient of linear expansion $\alpha = 9 \times 10^{-7} /^{\circ}C$ has a period of $0.5 \ s$ at $20^{\circ}C$. If the clock is used in a climate where the temperature is $30^{\circ}C$,how much time does the clock lose in each oscillation? (Assume $g$ is constant)

  • A
    $2.5 \times 10^{-7} \ s$
  • B
    $5 \times 10^{-7} \ s$
  • C
    $1.125 \times 10^{-6} \ s$
  • D
    $2.25 \times 10^{-6} \ s$
