Different Types of Forces
 Force is a physical cause that can change the state of
motion of any object or the dimensions. Different types
of Forces are listed below-
Contact Forces
 The contact forces are the forces which
occurs when we apply some effort on an
object.

Non-Contact Forces
 The non-contact forces are the forces which occurs from
a distance. Following is the classification of non-contact
forces:
Magnetic

Electrostatic

Gravitational

2
Spring Force
 This force works opposite to the displacement
of molecules. Like in a spring or elastic rubber
band etc.

Applied Force
 The force which is applied by our muscles is called
applied force is also called
muscular force.
 For example, pushing a box or
kicking a ball etc.

Air Resistance Force


 The force exerted by a gas acting upon a body on the
opposite direction is called air resistance force.
 The examples are

01  The forces experienced


by a skydiver

02  The forces experienced


by parachute 3
Normal Force
 It is referred to the force which acts when two
surfaces are in contact. This force is
perpendicular to the surface and acts
in the direction out of the surface.
 For example,
 A cat sitting on table
 A box on inclined plane
Tension Force
 This type of force is experienced by a rope or a string
which holds an object. The tension force is always a pull
not a push.
 The tension force is same throughout the cable.
 For example,
 ball hanging with the help of a string.

Hanging Block

Stretched Rope

 A rope stretched from both ends.
Frictional Force
 Frictional force acts when the
objects on a surface is trying to
move relative to surface.
 For example,
 When a box is slid on a table.
Electromagnetic Force
 These are the magnetic and electric
interactions between atoms and
molecules which helps in binding
and defining the structure of solids.
 For example,
 In a magnet, like poles attract
each other, while unlike repel.
Gravitational Force
 The gravitational force is defined as
the force acting between objects due
to presence of matter.
 For example,
 Earth’s gravity acting upon objects.
Nuclear Force

5
 The force responsible for the bonding of nucleus is
known as nuclear forces.
 For example,
 forces resulting in radioactive decay.

Balanced Force
 When two forces are in opposite direction and possess
equal magnitude then these forces called are
balanced force.
 Equal and opposite forces together acting on an object
when it’s not in a motion is said to be in equilibrium.
6
Unbalanced Force
 The unbalanced force can be defined as when two forces
acting on a body are of unequal size.

Conservative Force
 A conservative force is a force that does zero work
done in a closed path. If only these forces act then the

7
mechanical energy of the system remains
conserved. Conservative force abides by the law of
conservation of energy.
 Examples of conservative force,
 Gravitational force
 spring force
Non-Conservative Force
 Those forces which cause a loss of mechanical energy
from the system.
 But as we know energy can neither be created nor
destroyed hence these forces convert mechanical
energy into heat, sound, light etc.
 Example,
 Friction force

 Free Body Diagrams  The first step in


(FBD) are useful aids for analysing and

all forces acting upon an involves the careful
object in a given situation.

 In a free-body diagram,  A free body diagram is a

Procedure To Draw FBD

 Identify the Contact Forces and draw a dot to


01 represent the object that we are interested in

 Draw a coordinate system and label positive


02 directions. Draw a coordinate system and
label positive directions.

 Draw and label the long-range forces. This

electric charge or magnetism involved.

04  If there is acceleration in the system, then


draw and label the acceleration vector.
