At temperatures close to $0\ K$, the heat capacity $C$ of a certain solid is related to its temperature $T$ by the equation $C = aT^3$, where $a$ is a constant characteristic of the solid. Heat is supplied to the solid at a steady rate. Which graph best represents the variation of its temperature $T$ with time $t$?
