An external pressure $P$ is applied on a cube at $0^o C$ so that it is equally compressed from all sides. $K$ is the bulk modulus of the material of the cube and $\alpha$ is its coefficient of linear expansion. Suppose we want to bring the cube to its original size by heating. The temperature should be raised by

  • A
    $\frac{P}{3\alpha K}$
  • B
    $\frac{P}{\alpha K}$
  • C
    $\frac{3\alpha}{PK}$
  • D
    $\frac{PK}{3\alpha}$
