An external pressure P is applied on a cube at `0^@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

`3 alpha/PK`

B

`3 PK alpha`

C

`P/3 alpha K`

D

`P/alpha K`
