The coefficient of apparent expansion of a liquid in a copper vessel is $C$ and in a silver vessel is $ S$. The coefficient of volume expansion of copper is $\gamma_c$. What is the coefficient of linear expansion of silver?

  • A

    $\frac{{(C + {\gamma _c} + S)}}{3}$

  • B

    $\frac{{(C - {\gamma _c} + S)}}{3}$

  • C

    $\frac{{(C + {\gamma _c} - S)}}{3}$

  • D

    $\frac{{(C - {\gamma _c} - S)}}{3}$
