Answer:

there are many way but this may help

Explanation:

The tendency of a magnet to align itself in a north-south direction, so giving a magnetic compass, was discovered by the Chinese about 2000 years ago. Then in 1600 William Gilbert published De Magnete, in which he concluded that the earth behaved as a giant magnet. ...

Answer: Larmor suggested in 1919 that a self-exciting dynamo could explain the magnetic field of the earth, as well as that of the sun and other stars, but it was Elsasser and Bullard in the 1940s who showed how motion in the liquid core of the earth might produce a self-sustaining magnetic field. By this time seismology and other studies had given a clearer picture of the earth, as having a solid inner core, a liquid outer core, both with a composition more of metal (mainly iron) than rock, and a rocky mantle, all below a thin crust that is all we can directly see. Energy from radioactivity travels outwards as heat, producing thermal convection in the core. It seems that this convection is the cause of the earth's magnetic field, although our knowledge of the core and its dynamics is sketchy. Our knowledge is limited to saying that flow regimes like those that may be occurring in the core can produce self-sustaining dynamos, with characteristics similar to that needed to produce the earth’s magnetic field.

What times what equals 400
Radda [10]

If you're willing to consider fractions or decimals,
then there are an infinite number of answers. 
Like (2.5 x 160), and (15 x 26-2/3).

If you want to stick to only whole numbers,
then these 8 combinations do:

1, 400
2, 200
4, 100
5, 80
8, 50
10, 40
16, 25
20, 20

Group 7A of the periodic table contains the?
olga2289 [7]

The correct answer is A. Most reactive non metals.

Firstly if some one knows how to read the periodic table he would have no confusion in deciding whether group 7 has metals or non metals. Group 7 contains non metals so basically we can easily cancel out two options of metals.

Secondly group 7 non metals are the most reactive non metals as they need only one electron in order to complete their valence shell and become stable.
