At temperatures close to $0\ K$ , the heat capacity $C$ of a certain solid is related to its temperature $T$ by the equation $C = aT^3$ , where a is a constant characteristic of the solid. Heat is supplied to the solid at a steady rate. Which graph best represents the variation of its temperature $T$ with time $t$ ?
