$A$ fully charged capacitor of capacity $C$ is discharged through a small resistance wire embedded in a solid block of specific heat $s$ and mass $m$ under thermally isolated conditions. If the temperature of the block is raised by $\Delta T$,the initial potential difference across the capacitor is

  • A
    $\left(\frac{ms \Delta T}{C}\right)^2$
  • B
    $\sqrt{\frac{2ms \Delta T}{C}}$
  • C
    $\frac{ms \Delta T}{C}$
  • D
    $\frac{3ms \Delta T}{C}$
