An iron rod has a length of $10 \ cm$ at $20^{\circ}C$. What will be the change in length of the iron rod at $19^{\circ}C$? (Given for iron,$\alpha = 11 \times 10^{-6} \ ^{\circ}C^{-1}$)

  • A
    $11 \times 10^{-6} \ cm$ increase.
  • B
    $11 \times 10^{-6} \ cm$ decrease.
  • C
    $11 \times 10^{-5} \ cm$ decrease.
  • D
    $11 \times 10^{-5} \ cm$ increase.
