A sphere of diameter $7\,\, cm$ and mass $266.5 \,\,gm$ floats in a bath of a liquid. As the temperature is raised, the sphere just begins to sink at a temperature $35^o C$. If the density of a liquid at $0^o C$ is $1.527 \,\,gm/cc$, then neglecting the expansion of the sphere, the coefficient of cubical expansion of the liquid is$f$ :
