Shampy was estimating weight of some objects and wrote few sentences. ...
Identifying the Wrong Statement
In the context of estimating the weights of everyday objects, Shampy made several comparisons. However, one of the statements does not hold true. Let's analyze each statement.
Statement A: An electric iron is lighter than a chair.
- This statement is generally true. A typical electric iron weighs less than a standard chair.
Statement B: A perfume bottle is heavier than a comb.
- This statement is also correct. A perfume bottle, especially when filled, usually weighs more than a light comb.
Statement C: A watch is heavier than a hair band.
- This statement is where the error lies. Most watches, especially traditional ones, typically weigh more than hair bands, which are usually very light and made of elastic materials.
Statement D: A hair band is lighter than a rubber band.
- This statement is generally true as well. A typical hair band is lighter than a rubber band, especially when comparing standard sizes.
Conclusion
The incorrect statement is:
- C: A watch is heavier than a hair band.
In reality, while some watches can be quite light, most hair bands are designed to be very lightweight, making this comparison misleading. Therefore, option 'C' is the correct answer to identify as the wrong statement.
