The Concorde's exterior is made of aluminum, which has a coefficient of linear expansion of 24  10-6K-1. At 15C, the Concorde measures 62.1 m in length.
 
  When the plane is in flight, friction with the air increases the temperature of the exterior skin to 200C. What is the change in the length of the outer skin of the Concorde?
  A)
 
  20 cm
 
  B)
 
  24 cm
 
  C)
 
  28 cm
 
  D)
 
  32 cm
 
  E)
 
  36 cm
