Answer 1

Answer:

A plush or pull exerted by an object on another is a force.

Answer 2

Answer:

A push or pull exerted by an object on another is a force.

Explanation:

• Force is defined as any external push or pull that is applied on any object.
• The exerted push or pull causes change in the state of system.
• Force is given by:

                               $F=ma$

Here F is the force exerted, m is the mass of object on which the force is exerted and a is the acceleration of the object after experiencing the applied force.

Newton's second law of motion introduces the concept of Force and its equation.
