Solution

The correct option is C Both A and R are true and R is correct explanation of A
Moment of inertia of a rotating hollow sphere partially filled with water increases on increasing its angular velocity, because water will move away from the axis of rotation due to centrifugal force, and concentrate at the surface, due to which moment of inertia of the system will increase.
