Yes, but like gravity and the electrical force it gets weaker proportional to the inverse square of the distance.

Magnetism is a contact force because magnets make contact true or false?

False. Magnetism is not a contact force. It can act at a distance, meaning magnets can exert forces on each other without physical contact. This is due to their magnetic fields interacting with each other.


What three forces can act from a distance?

There are only two forces that act at a distance:gravity, andelectromagnetism.Magnetic fields are sometimes referred to as a third force, however magnetism and electrostatic forces are both examples the electromagnetic force.

What do gravity electricity and magnetism have in common?

Gravity, electricity, and magnetism are all fundamental forces in nature that act at a distance. They all involve the interaction of objects or particles with each other through fields. Additionally, they all play key roles in shaping the behavior of matter and energy in the universe.


Which force act from distance and pull iron object?

The force you are referring to is the force of magnetism, which can act at a distance and pull iron objects. This force is generated by magnets or magnetic materials and is responsible for the attraction between magnets and iron objects.

How are magnetism and gravity similar?

Magnetism and gravity are two fundamental forces in nature.The Shell Theorem can prove both magnetic and gravitational forces.Gravitational forces are always attractive. However, magnetic forces can be either attractive or repulsive. Both forces decay as the square of the distance between particles forming a couple.
