A rod $BC$ of negligible mass fixed at end $B$ and connected to a spring at its natural length having spring constant $K = 10^4\  N/m$ at end $C$, as shown in figure. For the rod $BC$ length $L = 4\ m$, area of cross-section $A = 4 × 10^{-4}\   m^2$, Young's modulus $Y = 10^{11} \ N/m^2$ and coefficient of linear expansion $\alpha = 2.2 × 10^{-4} K^{-1}.$ If the rod $BC$ is cooled from temperature $100^oC$  to $0^oC,$ then find the decrease in length of rod in centimeter.(closest to the integer)
