Detailed Solution

The above statement is False.
Non-contact force is the force that is applied by objects which are not in contact with each other. The non-contact force can act in every direction. Gravitational force is an example of non-contact force because it doesn’t require the two bodies to be in contact with each other. If the two bodies are in contact, then also the gravitational force may act. Also, a bird flying in the air experiences a gravitational force without any contact.
The correct statement would be, gravitational force is a non-contact force.
