A composite rod made up of two rods $AB$ and $BC$ are joined at $B$ . The rods are of equal length at room temperature and have equal masses. The coefficient of linear expansion a of $AB$ is more than that of $BC$. The composite rod is suspended horizontal by means of a thread at $B$. When the rod is heated
  • A
    It remains horizontal
  • BIt tilts down on the side of $AB$
