if you want the short reply, the answer is B
Factors influencing friction
The magnitude of friction is contingent on the following elements: i) The surface area in contact. ii) The applied pressure on the surfaces. Force is determined by Pressure multiplied by Area; thus, if the contact area increases or if the pressure applied rises, the frictional force will also escalate.
Methods for reducing friction
i) Smooth the contact surface. ii) Apply oil or grease to fill small gaps in flat surfaces. iii) Use ball bearings to minimize contact area among rotating components.
Lubrication
To minimize friction, various methods may be employed: Oil can be either thin or viscous, which depends on its SAE number (SAE indicating Society of Automotive Engineers). Highly viscous oils may not reach all components effectively. In contrast, very thin oils may drain away quickly, resulting in wastage. Grease is preferable in such situations, particularly around ball-bearings. Regular grease or oil should not be utilized under high speed, high pressure, and high temperature conditions—specialized lubricants are required then. The consistency of oil varies with temperature; it thickens in the cold and thins in the heat. Therefore, the choice of lubricant should be seasonally appropriate, and it's always wise to consult the equipment's operating manual prior to making a selection.[[TAG_11]]

Response:
45cm
Clarification:
A converging mirror is generally termed a concave mirror. The focal length and the image distance for a concave mirror are both expressed as positive values.
Using the mirror formula to derive the object distance;

Where f denotes the focal length, u indicates the object distance, and v represents the image distance.
Given f = 30cm, and v = 2u (The formed image is double the size of the pencil)
Plugging these values into the formula to solve for u yields;

By cross-multiplying, we obtain;
2u = 90
Dividing both sides by 2;
2u/2 = 90/2
u = 45cm
The object's distance from the mirror measures 45cm
The force can be determined using the equation F (force) = mass * acceleration. The unit of measurement, N (Newton), is equivalent to kilogram-meter/seconds2.
Thus, F= 1300 kg * 1.07 m/s2 = 1391 N.
The resultant value is 1391 N.
