Detailed Solution

The above statement is False.
Contact force is the force required to make direct contact between two bodies. A stick or a piece of rope can also be used to make contact. When we use a stick to push an object, we make contact with the object. The action of our body's muscles causes this push or pull force. This muscular force represents a contact force.
The correct statement would be that muscular force can be applied only when it is in contact with an object.
