Statement 1: A hollow metal sphere floats on water at 10° C, then if the temperature is increased, the force of buoyancy increases. Statement 2: On increasing the temperature the volume of the hollow sphere will increase.

Question

Statement 1: A hollow metal sphere floats on water at 10° C, then if the temperature is increased, the force of buoyancy increases. Statement 2: On increasing the temperature the volume of the hollow sphere will increase. (A) Statement-1 is true, Statement-2 is false (B) Statement-1 is false, Statement-2 is true (C) Statement-1 is true, Statement-2 is true and Statement-2 is a correct explanation for Statement-1. (D) Statement-1 is true, Statement-2 is true but Statement-2 is not a correct explanation for Statement-1.

Statement-1 is false, Statement-2 is true. Since the hollow metal sphere floats, its weight is supported by buoyant force. As weight does not change on increasing the temperature, the buoyant force does not change.

Q. Statement 1: A hollow metal sphere floats on water at 10∘C, then if the temperature is increased, the force of buoyancy increases. Statement 2: On increasing the temperature the volume of the hollow sphere will increase.

Statement-1 is true, Statement-2 is false

Statement-1 is false, Statement-2 is true

Statement-1 is true, Statement-2 is true and Statement-2 is a correct explanation for Statement-1.

Statement-1 is true, Statement-2 is true but Statement-2 is not a correct explanation for Statement-1.

Statement-1 is false, Statement-2 is true. Since the hollow metal sphere floats, its weight is supported by buoyant force. As weight does not change on increasing the temperature, the buoyant force does not change.

Q. Statement 1: A hollow metal sphere floats on water at $1 0^{\circ} C$ , then if the temperature is increased, the force of buoyancy increases.

Statement 2: On increasing the temperature the volume of the hollow sphere will increase.
