the act of smiling back at a person who smiles at you
the lyrics to a popular song posted on the internet
clothing that was made by a local craftswoman
a cell phone app that helps people find a friend

Explanation:

Nonmaterial culture refers to the intangible aspects of culture such as beliefs, values, norms, and behaviors. Smiling back at someone who smiles at you is a social behavior (a norm) that is part of nonmaterial culture. The lyrics posted on the internet are still a form of tangible (can be seen, recorded) cultural product. Clothing is a material object. A cell - phone app is a tangible (can be downloaded, used on a device) technological product.

Answer:

the act of smiling back at a person who smiles at you
