what is non contact force
Asked by tronak75439 | 19th Feb, 2020, 09:53: PM
Expert Answer:
Forces which come into play when two objects do not have any physical contact between them are called non-contact forces. The most familiar example of non-contact force is weight, which is the force exerted on an object in gravitational field due to earth or any other planet or any celestial object like moon.
Other examples for non-contact forces are :- magnetic force, electrostatic force.

- How can we say that force is an interaction between 2 objects if non contact force is also there?
- What do we call such forces that do not require any physical contact with the object on which they act? Give two examples of such forces.
- What is gravitational force? Give two examples from your daily life.
- What happens when two magnets are brought near each other?
- Name the forces acting on a plastic bucket containing water held above ground level in your hand. Discuss why the forces acting on the bucket do not bring a change in its state of motion.
- A rocket has been fired upwards to launch a satellite in its orbit. Name the non contact force acting downwards on the rocket immediately after leaving the launching pad.
- Why does an object always fall downwards and not upwards?
