    A small spherical monoatomic ideal gas bubble $\left(\gamma=\frac{5}{3}\right)$ is trapped inside a liquid of density $\rho_{\ell}$ (see figure). Assume that the bubble does not exchange any heat with the liquid. The bubble contains n moles of gas. The temperature of the gas when the bubble is at the bottom is $\mathrm{T}_0$, the height of the liquid is $\mathrm{H}$ and the atmospheric pressure is $\mathrm{P}_0$ (Neglect surface tension).

    Figure: $Image$

    $1.$ As the bubble moves upwards, besides the buoyancy force the following forces are acting on it

    $(A)$ Only the force of gravity

    $(B)$ The force due to gravity and the force due to the pressure of the liquid

    $(C)$ The force due to gravity, the force due to the pressure of the liquid and the force due to viscosity of the liquid

    $(D)$ The force due to gravity and the force due to viscosity of the liquid

    $2.$ When the gas bubble is at a height $\mathrm{y}$ from the bottom, its temperature is

    $(A)$ $\mathrm{T}_0\left(\frac{\mathrm{P}_0+\rho_0 \mathrm{gH}}{\mathrm{P}_0+\rho_t \mathrm{gy}}\right)^{2 / 5}$

    $(B)$ $T_0\left(\frac{P_0+\rho_t g(H-y)}{P_0+\rho_t g H}\right)^{2 / 5}$
