When the temperature of a body increases from $T$ to $T+\Delta T$,its moment of inertia increases from $I$ to $I+\Delta I$. If $\alpha$ is the coefficient of linear expansion of the material of the body,then $\frac{\Delta I}{I}$ is (neglect higher orders of $\alpha$ ).

  • A
    $\alpha \Delta T$
  • B
    $2 \alpha \Delta T$
  • C
    $\frac{\Delta T}{\alpha}$
  • D
    $\frac{2 \alpha}{\Delta T}$
