The situation that describes a non-contact force acting on an object is not listed among the options provided because each example given involves a contact force.
However, a classic example of a non-contact force would be the gravitational force acting on an object (e.g., an apple falling from a tree). Non-contact forces include gravitational force, electromagnetic force, and nuclear force, as they act at a distance without direct physical interaction.
From your options, none illustrate a non-contact force. Would you like to discuss more examples of non-contact forces?
