$A$ drop of liquid of radius $R=10^{-2} \,m$ having surface tension $S=\frac{0.1}{4 \pi} \,Nm^{-1}$ divides itself into $K$ identical drops. In this process, the total change in the surface energy is $\Delta U=10^{-3} \,J$. If $K=10^\alpha$, then the value of $\alpha$ is:

  • A
    $3$
  • B
    $6$
  • C
    $4$
  • D
    $5$
