State whether the following statements are True or False:
$(i)$ If the weight of a body is greater than the buoyant force of the liquid,the body floats on the surface of the liquid.
$(ii)$ The velocity of water at the bottom of a river is always slower than at the surface.

$A$ balloon is made of a material of surface tension $S$ and its inflation outlet (from where gas is filled in it) has small area $A$. It is filled with a gas of density $\rho$ and takes a spherical shape of radius $R$. When the gas is allowed to flow freely out of it,its radius changes from $R$ to $0$ in time $T$. If the speed $\psi(r)$ of gas coming out of the balloon depends on $r$ as $r^\alpha$ and $T \propto S^a A^\beta \rho^\gamma R^\delta$,then:
