No magnetic force is not a material one

∙ 13y agoNon-matter. Think of gravity. Also, think of forces as pushes and pulls.
Gravity is a force that is conveyed by particles called gravitons which have mass thus are matter. Electromagnetic force is conveyed by photons which also have mass thus are matter. The strong and weak nuclear forces are conveyed by the gluon and boson respectively. Both have mass and are thus forms of matter. These are the only known forces in the universe all forms of energy transference that we would describe as force are just some form of these actions. Since each force is actually the transference of a particle of matter the force itself can be called matter.

Is magnetic force is contact or non contact?
Magnetic force is a non-contact force.
Is gravity a noncontact force?
Yes. Gravity can be considered a noncontact force. There is no requirement of the force to touch the object which the force exerts itself on.
Why is gravity a noncontact force?
That simply means that it requires no contact between the objects to act.
What are three examples of noncontact forces?
A sound field, an electrical field, a magnetic field, and a gravity field would all be examples of non-contact forces. But though their effects are 'non-contact' their presence may nevertheless be easily detected.
Is magnetic force an example of contact force?
no
Is gravity a contact or noncontact force?
contact
How are forces classified?
force can be classified as contact and noncontact
Describe contact force and noncontact force that affect the motion of a baseball a pitcher has thrown the ball?
The contact force will keep the ball moving but as the ball goes farther the ball slows down that's were the non contact force comes in it makes the ball not in contact
Why gravity force a noncontact force?
That simply means that it requires no contact between the objects to act.
Is magnetic force is contact or non contact?
Magnetic force is a non-contact force.

Is magnetic force an example of contact force?
no
Why is magnetic force a non contact force?
Because it's not necessary for objects to be in contact (touching) in order to feel the magnetic force between them.
Is magnetic contact or non contact?
It is a non-contact force :)
