Read the given statements and select the correct option.
Statement 1: Rechargeable batteries can be discharged by providing them suitable current. Statement 2: In a bulb, the filament is broken when a large current (beyond reference level) is passed through the bulb.

Options

A. Both statements 1 and 2 are true and statement 2 is the correct explanation of statement 1.
B. Both statements 1 and 2 are true but statement 2 is not the correct explanation of statement 1.
C. Statement 1 is true but statement 2 is false.
D. Statement 1 is false but statement 2 is true.

Explanation

To solve the question, we need to analyze both statements provided:

**Statement 1:** Rechargeable batteries can be discharged by providing them suitable current.

1. **Understanding Rechargeable Batteries:**
- Rechargeable batteries are designed to store energy and can be recharged by applying a suitable current.
- When we apply current to recharge them, we are essentially reversing the chemical reactions that occur during discharge.

2. **Conclusion for Statement 1:**
- The statement implies that providing suitable current discharges the battery, which is incorrect. Instead, suitable current is used to recharge the battery.
- Therefore, **Statement 1 is false.**

**Statement 2:** In a bulb, the filament is broken when a large current (beyond reference level) is passed through the bulb.

1. **Understanding Bulb Filaments:**
- A filament in a bulb is designed to handle a certain amount of current (reference level).
- If the current exceeds this reference level, the filament can overheat and eventually break due to the excessive heat generated.

2. **Conclusion for Statement 2:**
- Since a large current can indeed cause the filament to break, **Statement 2 is true.**

**Final Evaluation:**
- Statement 1 is false.
- Statement 2 is true.

Thus, the correct option is that Statement 1 is false and Statement 2 is true.

### Final Answer:
The correct option is: Statement 1 is false and Statement 2 is true.
