explain me the types of forces

Respuesta:Let’s break down the types of forces in a clear and structured way. Forces are basically pushes or pulls that can change the motion of an object. There are several types:---1. Contact ForcesThese forces occur when two objects physically touch each other. Examples include:Friction Force (Friction) Opposes the motion of objects sliding against each other.Example: Pushing a box on the floor.Tension Force (Tension) Force transmitted through a string, rope, or cable when pulled tight.Example: A rope in a tug-of-war.Normal Force The support force exerted by a surface perpendicular to an object resting on it.Example: A book resting on a table.Applied Force Any force applied by a person or another object.Example: Pushing a cart.Spring Force Force exerted by a stretched or compressed spring.Example: A trampoline spring pushing back.---2. Non-Contact (Action-at-a-Distance) ForcesThese forces act without physical contact. Examples include:Gravitational Force (Gravity) The force of attraction between two masses.Example: Objects falling to the ground.Electrostatic Force ⚡The force between charged particles.Example: Rubbing a balloon on hair and it sticks.Magnetic Force Force between magnets or magnetic materials.Example: Magnets attracting or repelling each other.---3. Other Important ForcesSome forces are combinations or special cases:Buoyant Force Upward force exerted by a fluid on an object submerged in it.Example: A boat floating on water.Air Resistance (Drag) Force that opposes motion through air.Example: Parachutes slowing down skydivers.---Summary TableType Example Touch Required?Friction Sliding box YesTension Rope in tug-of-war YesNormal Book on table YesApplied Pushing cart YesSpring Trampoline spring YesGravity Falling apple NoElectrostatic Balloon sticking to wall NoMagnetic Magnets attracting NoBuoyant Boat floating NoAir Resistance Parachute No
