The coefficients of apparent expansion of a liquid when determined using two different vessels \(A\) and \(B\) are \(y_1\) and \(y_2\), respectively. If the coefficient of linear expansion of the vessel \(A\) is \(\alpha\), the coefficient of linear expansion of the vessel \(B\) is

  1. A \(\frac{a \gamma_1 \gamma_2}{\gamma_1+\gamma_2}\)
  2. B \(\frac{\gamma_1-\gamma_2}{2 \alpha}\)
  3. C \(\frac{\gamma_1-\gamma_2+\alpha}{3}\)
  4. D \(\frac{\gamma_1-\gamma_2}{3}+\alpha\)
