Solution
The correct option is Astatement 1 and statement 2 are correct and statement 2 is correct
explanation for statement 1 Since linear expansion does not depend on the cross-section area. hence, both the rod will expand by the same length. Therefore statement 1 is true and a statement 2 is also a correct explanation.
