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
    $\frac{C - \gamma_c - S}{3}$
