The forces are mainly divided on the basis of when it acts. The types of forces are given below : -

1. Contact Forces

The forces that are applicable only when the objects under consideration are in actual physical contact with each other are called contact forces. Examples: Frictional Force, Muscular Force, Force of Tension, etc.
