Question

Statement I : A solid sphere placed in the fluid under high pressure is compressed uniformly on all sides.

Statement II : The volume of solid sphere will decrease with change of its geometrical shape.

Easy
Solution

The force applied by the fluid acts in perpendicular direction at each point of the surface and the body is said to be under hydraulic compression. This leads to decrease in its volume without any change of its geometrical shape.
