What are contact forces and which forces are contact?

Contact forces are forces that can only have an effect on objects that they touch, such as when you contact a box and apply force to move it. you might apply a contact force to bend, tear, stretch, compress, or twist and abject. Tension force, friction force, and elastic force are examples of contact forces.


Why a magnetism is a non contact force?

Because it's not necessary for objects to be in contact (touching) in order to feel the magnetic force between them.


Contact metamorphism occurs when rocks come into contact with magma Ture or False?

true


When and where do you get friction?

Anytime the surfaces of two objects come into contact.


Is friction a non contact force?

Because it is two surfaces rubbing against each other, in this case it creates heat and possibly static electricity. To touch; contact. If two surfaces rub against each other forcefully this is a contact force.


What happens when two different temperature objects come in contact?

thermal energy(heat) transfer to cooler objects...............................................................................................................


What is a force only exerted when objects touch?

A contact force? The answer really depends on the level of the question. Primary school answer: A pushing or pulling force, or a friction force occur when objects touch. High school answer: Same as above, but 'pushing' and 'pulling' would be replaced with positive and negative. Friction would be defined as a force that opposes motion, and would include air resistance and drag. University answer: Technically, there is no such force, as all forces act at a distance without touching. In fact, objects don't actually 'touch' one another at all. The outer electrons in an object's atoms will repel said electrons from another object's atoms through the electromagnetic force. This only makes it feel like the objects have come into contact with one another, when in fact they haven't.


How many objects should be present for a force to come into play?
