The coefficient 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 vessel $A$ is $\alpha $, the coefficient of linear expansion of vessel $B$ is

  • A

    $\frac{{\alpha {\gamma _1}{\gamma _2}{\kern 1pt} }}{{{\gamma _1} + {\gamma _2}{\kern 1pt} }}$

  • B

    $\frac{{{\gamma _1} - {\gamma _2}}}{{2\alpha }}$

  • C

    $\frac{{{\gamma _1} - {\gamma _2} + \alpha }}{3}$

  • D

    $\frac{{{\gamma _1} - {\gamma _2}}}{3} + \alpha $
