Contact and Non Contact Forces

Which of the following forces requires direct physical contact?

• Gravitational forces
• Air resistance forces
• Friction forces
• Magnetic forces

What is the main difference between contact forces and non-contact forces?

• Contact forces push objects away from each other, while non-contact forces pull objects towards each other
• Contact forces act over a distance, while non-contact forces require direct physical contact
• Contact forces require direct physical contact, while non-contact forces act without any direct physical contact
• Contact forces are stronger than non-contact forces
