The coefficients of apparent expansion of a liquid when determined using two different vessels $A$ and $B$ are $\gamma_1$ and $\gamma_2$, respectively. If the coefficient of linear expansion of the vessel $A$ is $\alpha$, the coefficient of linear expansion of the vessel $B$ is

  • A
    $\frac{\alpha \gamma_1 \gamma_2}{\gamma_1+\gamma_2}$
  • B
    $\frac{\gamma_1-\gamma_2}{2 \alpha}$
  • C
    $\frac{\gamma_1-\gamma_2+\alpha}{3}$
  • D
    $\frac{\gamma_1-\gamma_2}{3}+\alpha$

Two vertical glass tubes filled with a liquid are connected by a capillary tube as shown in the figure. The tube on the left is put in an ice bath at $0^{\circ}C$ while the tube on the right is kept at $30^{\circ}C$ in a water bath. The difference in the levels of the liquid in the two tubes is $4 \, cm$ while the height of the liquid column at $0^{\circ}C$ is $120 \, cm$. The coefficient of volume expansion of the liquid is (Ignore expansion of the glass tube):
