$A$ glass flask is filled up to a mark with $50\, cc$ of mercury at $18^{\circ}C.$ If the flask and contents are heated to $38^{\circ}C,$ how much mercury will be above the mark? (Given: $\alpha$ for glass is $9 \times 10^{-6} {^{\circ}C}^{-1}$ and the coefficient of real expansion of mercury is $180 \times 10^{-6} {^{\circ}C}^{-1}$)

  • A
    $0.85$
  • B
    $0.46$
  • C
    $0.15$
  • D
