Are electrostatic charges contact or non-contact forces?
It is a non-contact force - no contact is required for the force to act.
What is the definition of non-contact forces?
A non-contact force is any force applied to an object by another body that is not in direct contact with it. Ex. Gravity, Magnetism
What is the meaning of the statement 'some forces can act over a distance rather than by contact' mean?
Forces such as electrostatic or magnetic attraction or repulsion, and that of gravitational attraction will act between two bodies even though the bodies are not in contact.
What is 1 example of contact forces?
2 forces that push or pull each other without touching an example is...when 2 magnets are put together they pull ( or push ) each other with out TOUCHING!! ;)Hope you understand! 8)
Is electrostatic force contact force or non contact force?
non-contact
Is electro static a contact or a non contact force?
Electrostatic forces work at a distance. Non contact.
Are electrostatic charges contact or non-contact forces?
It is a non-contact force - no contact is required for the force to act.
What other words can be used to describe force?
contact forces: Push, pull, friction, strain. Non-contact forces : Magnetic, gravitational and electrostatic
Do gravitational force is in the non contact forces?
yes, its one of the 3 non-contact forces generally see. the ther both are magnetic force and electrostatic force
What are 3 non-contact forces?
-- gravitational -- electrostatic -- magnetic -- weak nuclear -- strong nuclear
Is electrostatic a contact or non contact force?
Electrostatic Force are non-contact force.

What forces holds ions together?
electrostatic forces-apex
Forces that act on an object at a distance?
Some forces do not involve physical contact between the bodies on which they act. They act through the space between them. Such forces are called Non-Contact Forces or Action-at-a Distance Force. They are of three types, namely, magnetic force, electrostatic force and gravhtational force. Magnetic Force -- The forces which a magnet exerts on iron objects is called magnetic forces. Electrostatic Force -- The force which result due to the repulsion of similar charges or attraction of opposite charges is called electrostatic force. Gravitational force -- The force by which Earth pulls the objects towards its centre is called gravitational force.
