plzz somebdoy explain
When a block of iron floats in mercury at 0°C, a fraction k1 of its volume is submerged, while at the temperature of 40°C, a fraction k2 is seen to be submerged. If the coefficient of volume expansion is γFe and that of mercury is γHg, then the ratio k1/k2 can be expressed as

this is the explaination given
mg=k1V1d1g
mg=k2V2d2g
k1V1d1=k2V2d2g
nw i get everything .... except this part.....
"
k1/k2=(V2/V1)*(d2/d1)
=(1+40γFe)/(1+40γHg)
