Pulling a wagon is considered a contact force. Contact forces occur when two objects are physically touching each other, and in this case, the force you exert when pulling the wagon acts through the rope or handle that is in direct contact with the wagon. The pulling force involves friction between the wagon wheels and the ground, also a type of contact force. Non-contact forces, on the other hand, include forces such as gravity, magnetism, and electrostatic forces, which act at a distance without physical contact.
