Question
Friction: This force opposes the relative motion of two surfaces in contact. It always acts in the opposite direction of the motion.
Applied: This is a force exerted directly on an object by another object, like pushing or pulling.
Tension: it occurs when a rope or string pulls on an object
Air Resistance: Though it is a non-contact force, it’s also a contact force when it interacts with the air molecules
Normal: This force acts perpendicular to the surface of contact and prevents objects from passing through each other.
Magnetism: This force acts between objects with magnetic properties. It doesn't require physical contact.
Electrostatic: This force acts between electrically charged objects. Like magnetism, it doesn't require direct contact.
Gravity: This force attracts any object with mass towards any other object with mass.
Air Resistance: This object doesn't need to be directly touching the air to experience this force. However, it is also a contact force because it interacts with the air molecules, so I decided to add Air Resistance to both of the contact and non-contact forces.

Sure! Here’s a simpler explanation that an 8th grader can understand:
**Friction:** This force tries to stop things from sliding. It always pushes against the direction that the object is moving.
**Applied Force:** This is the force that you use when you push or pull something. It's when one object is directly affecting another.
**Tension:** This force happens when you pull on something like a rope or string. It’s what keeps the rope tight when you pull on it.
**Air Resistance:** This is a force that acts against objects moving through the air. Although it’s called "resistance," it can also be thought of as a contact force because it interacts with air molecules.
**Normal Force:** This force acts like an invisible support. It pushes up against objects resting on a surface, stopping them from falling through it.
**Magnetism:** This force happens between things with magnets, like when you see magnets sticking to the fridge. They can push or pull on each other without touching!
**Electrostatic Force:** This force occurs between objects that have electric charge. Just like magnetism, it works without needing objects to be in direct contact.
**Gravity:** This is the force that pulls everything with mass toward each other. It’s why you stay on the ground and why things fall!
Hope this makes it clearer!
