The figure shows a glass tube (linear coefficient of expansion is $\alpha$) completely filled with a liquid of volume expansion coefficient $\gamma$. On heating,the length of the liquid column does not change. Choose the correct relation between $\gamma$ and $\alpha$.

  • A
    $\gamma = \alpha$
  • B
    $\gamma = 2\alpha$
  • C
    $\gamma = 3\alpha$
  • D
    $\gamma = \frac{\alpha}{3}$
