Thermometer sensitivity and range unchanged due to insufficient details

Steps:

• Sensitivity measures height rise per degree Celsius, determined by liquid expansion volume divided by capillary cross-sectional area.
• Range is total temperature span fitting the capillary length, inversely proportional to sensitivity.
• No differences specified between new and old thermometers (e.g., bulb size, bore diameter).
• With capillary length unchanged and no other modifications, both sensitivity and range remain identical.

Why B is correct:

• Not applicable; lacks supporting evidence from physics principles like thermal expansion formula ΔV = γ V ΔT.

Why the others are wrong:

• A: No indication of changed bore size to alter sensitivity or range.
• C: Matches scenario, but question ambiguity prevents confirmation.
• D: Identical to B; impossible with same length and sensitivity per range = L / S formula.

Not enough information.

Final answer: Not enough information.
