The loss of weight of a solid when immer...

The loss of weight of a solid when immersed in a liquid at `0^(@)C` is `W_(0)` and at `t^(@)C` is `'W'`. If cubical coefficient of expansion of the solid and the liquid are `gamma_(s)` and `gamma_(1)` then `W =`

A

`W=W_(0)[(gamma_(s)-gamma_(l))]`

B

`W=W_(0)[1=(gamma_(2)+gamma_(l))t]`

C

`W=(W_(0)t)/(gamma_(l)-gamma_(s))`

D

`W=W_(0)[1-(gamma_(s)-gamma_(l))t]`
