Three liquids with masses $m_1, m_2, m_3$ are thoroughly mixed. If their specific heats are $c_1, c_2, c_3$ and their temperatures are $T_1, T_2, T_3$ respectively,then the temperature of the mixture is

  • A
    $\frac{c_1 T_1 + c_2 T_2 + c_3 T_3}{m_1 c_1 + m_2 c_2 + m_3 c_3}$
  • B
    $\frac{m_1 c_1 T_1 + m_2 c_2 T_2 + m_3 c_3 T_3}{m_1 c_1 + m_2 c_2 + m_3 c_3}$
  • C
    $\frac{m_1 c_1 T_1 + m_2 c_2 T_2 + m_3 c_3 T_3}{m_1 T_1 + m_2 T_2 + m_3 T_3}$
  • D
    $\frac{m_1 T_1 + m_2 T_2 + m_3 T_3}{c_1 T_1 + c_2 T_2 + c_3 T_3}$
