10 : Search in current directory for all files whose owner is abc1 or whose name is myfile1.
11 : Search in current directory for all files which have permissions 777.
12 : Search in current directory for all files chose size is 10 blocks.
13 : Search in current directory for all files whose size 10 bytes(characters).

19 : Search in current directory for all files whose name is cog and instead of printing their names executes a command rm on the searched files.
Here, the {} indicate that the searched files would become arguments for rm.The semicolon is necessary and it has to be preceded by a \ to take away its special meaning.
20 : Same as above except that this time it should ask for confirmation before executing rm command.
