Contact Force
In physics, a contact force is a force that acts at the point of contact between two objects, in contrast to
body forces. Contact forces are described by Newton's laws of motion, as with all other forces in
dynamics. Contact force is the force in which an object comes in contact with another object.
2. Examples of Contact Force

2.1) Pushing an object along the floor :


This is an example of a continuous force. Here, continuosly, the direct force is put on the object
to move it along the floor.
2.2) Kicking a Soccer ball :
This is the example of a impulse force. Here force is applied to the ball with a given mass for a
given time and we can see the ball is moving away with some velocity in a particular direction.
2.3) When a marble on a glass surface is subjected to an applied force, the marble moves a
considerable distance.
3. The Moon has weaker Gravitational pull because the Earth is more massive. Everything that
has mass has gravity; put another way, everything that has mass attracts
everything else that has mass. Mass is the amount of matter contained in an object;
it's also what gives that object inertia, the tendency of matter to remain at rest if at
rest, or, if moving, to keep moving in the same direction at the same speed. The
greater an object's mass, the more gravitational force it exerts.

1. Kinetic friction :Friction that arises between surfaces in relative motion.
2. Static friction :Friction that acts between surfaces at rest with respect to each
other
3. Rolling friction : Friction that occurs when an object rolls over a surface.

5. -6. A non-contact force is a force applied to an object by another body that is not in direct
contact with it. The most familiar example of a non-contact force is weight. In contrast a contact
force is a force applied to a body by another body that is in contact with it. However it is to be
noted that the origin of all contact forces (such as, for example, friction) can be traced to noncontact forces.
All four known fundamental interactions are non-contact forces:

Gravity, the force of attraction that exists among all bodies that have mass. The force
exerted on each body by the other through weight is proportional to the mass of the first
body times the mass of the second body divided by the square of the distance between
them.

Electromagnetism is the force that causes the interaction between electrically charged
particles; the areas in which this happens are called electromagnetic fields. Examples of
this force include: electricity, magnetism, radio waves, microwaves, infrared, visible

light, X-rays and gamma rays. Electromagnetism mediates all chemical, biological,
electrical and electronic processes.
