A piece of metal weight $46\, gm$ in air, when it is immersed in the liquid of specific gravity $1.24$ at $27°C$ it weighs $30\, gm.$ When the temperature of liquid is raised to $42°C$ the metal piece weight $30.5\, gm,$ specific gravity of the liquid at $42°C$ is $1.20,$ then the linear expansion of the metal will be

  • A
