CONTACT FORCES

10
 Applied Force
An applied force is a
force that is applied to an
object by a person or
another object. If a
person is pushing a desk
across the room, then
there is an applied force
acting upon the object.
The applied force is the
force exerted on the desk
by the person.
11
 Normal Force
The normal force is the support
force exerted upon an object that is
in contact with another stable object.
For example, if a book is resting upon
a surface, then the surface is exerting
an upward force upon the book in
order to support the weight of the
book. On occasions, a normal force is
exerted horizontally between two
objects that are in contact with each
other. For instance, if a person leans
against a wall, the wall pushes
horizontally on the person. 12
 Frictional Force
The friction force is the force exerted
by a surface as an object moves
across it or makes an effort to move
across it.

2 Types:
 Sliding - results when an object
slides across a surface.
 Static - results when the surfaces
of two objects are at rest relative to
one another and a force exists on
one of the objects to set it into
motion relative to the other object. 13
 Frictional Force

Example:
if a book slides across the
surface of a desk, then the desk
exerts a friction force in the
opposite direction of its motion.

14
 Air Resistance Force
The air resistance is a
special type of frictional
force that acts upon objects
as they travel through the
air. The force of air
resistance is often observed
to oppose the motion of an
object.
Examples: skydiver, kite in
the air 15
 Tension Force
The tension force is the
force that is transmitted
through a string, rope, cable
or wire when it is pulled tight
by forces acting from
opposite ends. The tension
force is directed along the
length of the wire and pulls
equally on the objects on the
opposite ends of the wire. 16
 Spring Force
The spring force is the
force exerted by a
compressed or stretched
spring upon any object that
is attached to it. An object
that compresses or
stretches a spring is always
acted upon by a force that
restores the object to its
rest or equilibrium position. 17
NON-CONTACT
FORCES

18
GRAVITATIONAL FORCE/GRAVITY
A force of attraction between two objects. It
causes all objects thrown upward to always fall
and move towards the center of the earth.
 ELECTRICAL FORCE
The repulsive or attractive interaction between
any two charged bodies is called as electric
force.
 ELECTRICAL FORCE
 Electrical force is
manifested when you
briskly comb your hair
with a plastic comb and
then use the plastic
comb to pick up bits of
paper.
 MAGNETIC
 Every magnet, whatever
FORCE
the shape and size is,
has two poles: the north
pole and the south
pole.
 Magnetic force, a
magnetic field with an
invisible force. This force
may either
attract or repel
magnetic
substances.
