                       FORCE

 

''-Force is a push or pull of an object. ''

 There are two types of forces

     1.Contact force 

     2.Non-contact force

 1.Contact force- Force exerted by objects in contact with each other is known as contact force.

     There are two types of contact forces  

          a)Muscular force                                                                  

          b)Frictional force 

 a)Muscular force- Force exerted by muscles is known as muscular force.

 b)Frictional force- Force which opposes the motion of body is known as frictional force.

2.Non-contact force- Force exerted by objects without contact with each other is known as Non-contact force.

   There are three types of Non-contact forces

        a)Magnetic force

        b)Electrostatic force

        c)Gravitational force

a)Magnetic force- Force exerted by magnet is known as magnetic force.

b)Electrostatic force-Force exerted by one charged body on another charged or un charged body is known as electrostatic force.

c)Gravitational force-Force that pulls the object towards earth.
