A force can work on an object sometimes, even if it is not in contact with that object. Force is an act of push and pull. There are two types of force.

• Non-contact force
The force applied to an object without any physical contact is called non-contact force. Examples of non-contact forces are magnetic, gravitational, and electrostatic forces.
