This property of a wave is reflection. 
Reflection of a wave is the process by which waves such as light, sound , infrared, or radio waves, hits and object and bounces off it. It is the change in direction of a wave front at an interface between two different media so that the wavelength returns into the medium of origin.  From the law of reflection for a specular reflection the angle at which the wave is incident on the surface is equal to the angle at which it is reflected.

the distance between any two bodies is 10 M and the gravitational force between them is 3.2×10-⁹m. if the mass of one object is
cluponka [151]

Answer:

0.8 x 10^-9 kg

Explanation:

Given,

Distance ( R ) = 10 m

Force ( F ) = 3.2 x 10^-9 N

Mass ( m1 ) = 40 kg

To find : Mass ( m2 ) = ?

Formula : -

F = m1.m2 / R^2

m2 = FR^2 / m1

= 3.2 x 10^-9 x 10 / 40

= 3.2 x 10^-9 / 4

= ( 3.2 / 4 ) x 10^-9

m2 = 0.8 x 10^-9 kg

Answer: C. Metals are found on the left side of the periodic table.

Explanation:

The periodic table contains vertical columns called as groups and horizontal rows called as periods.

Period 2 contains 8 elements which are lithium, beryllium , boron , carbon, nitrogen, oxygen , fluorine and neon. Only Lithium and beryllium are metals.

Group 18 contains all the noble gases which are all non metals.

Metals are the elements which loose electrons easily and form positive ions. Non-metals are the elements which can gain electrons easily and form negative ions.

Metals are present on left side of the periodic table and as we move to right side of the periodic table , the metallic character decreases and thus non metals are found on the right side of the periodic table.
