$A$ monochromatic light of wavelength $6000 \text{ Å}$ is incident on a single slit of width $0.01 \text{ mm}$. If the diffraction pattern is formed at the focus of a convex lens of focal length $20 \text{ cm}$, the linear width of the central maximum is: (in $\text{ mm}$)
- A$6$
- B$24$
- C$120$
- D$12$
