Mirrors reflect light and lenses refract light.
Mirrors form images by reflecting all light that is incident on their surface, which allows us to see the reflections of objects in mirrors. Lenses, on the other hand, bend light and allow it to pass through them. The bending of light is used to form enlarged images, and for many other purposes as well.

<u>Answer:</u> The correct statement is mirrors reflect light and lenses refract light.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Mirrors are defined as the piece of glass which has a shiny coating on one side. This shiny coating helps in the reflection of light when light rays falls on it. Reflection of light is defined as the process of throwing back of light rays after touching the surface.

Lenses are defined as the piece of glass which does not have any shiny coating and when light rays pass through it, the light rays get refracted. Refraction of light is defined as the process of bending of light when a medium is changed.

Hence, the correct statement is mirrors reflect light and lenses refract light.

How many neutrons does element X have if its atomic number is 30 and its mass number is 70?
Yanka [14]
The answer is 40.

We can solve this by finding out the number of protons, and neutrons. Atomic number of an element means the number of protons in that element. So, the atom has 30 protons if the atomic number is 30.

On the other hand, mass number is the total number of protons and neutrons, but not electrons, because they're too light comparing to the other 2. Therefore, we can simply solve the number of neutrons in the atom by subtracting the number of protons from the mass number. 70 - 30 = 40.

Therfore, the number of neutrons is 40.
