Solution

The correct option is D 2αΔT
Let us consider the axis passing through centre of mass of the rod and perpendicular to the rod.
We know that, moment of inertia of rod about an axis passing through the centre of mass and perpendicular to the rod is given by,
I=KML2(1)
where K=112
Applying logarithm on both sides, we get
lnI=ln(KM)+2lnL
Differentiating on both sides,
dII=2dLL .......(2)
[mass M is constant]

From the definition of linear expansion,
dLL=α(dT) ......(3)
Substituting (3) in (2), we get
dII=2α(dT)
or ΔII=2αΔT
Thus, option (d) is the correct answer.
