You are probably referring to gravity. It pulls us towards the Earth and keeps our feet planted on the ground. Bigger objects like the Earth have enough gravity to really affect things. But something as small as a mountain can also exert a measurable gravitational force. So can a large Building.
That is called a centripetal force.
The forces of gravity between every two objects attract the objects toward each other. So I guess you'd call that a 'pulling force'.
There is no special name for that. Physics is usually just concerned with "forces", and doesn't specify whether the force pushes or pulls. If you want to be more specific, you can just call it a "pulling force".There is no special name for that.

The gravitational force between two objects is: Force = G ( M1 M2 / R2 ) 'M1' and 'M2' are the masses of the objects. 'R' is the distance between their centers of mass. 'G' is the gravitational proportionality constant. In the MKS system it's 6.67 x 10-11. The same force acts on both objects. That means that you feel a force pulling you toward the center of the earth ... which you call your 'weight' ... and the earth feels the same force pulling it toward you.
No, that's not correct at all.First ... the mass of an object doesn't change. What changes is the force between that objectand any other object with mass. That force is what we call the "weight" of the objects.Also ... it's very misleading to talk about "how much gravity is pulling". The force of gravity actsbetween two masses. The forces are always equal on both objects, and the strength of the forcedepends on both masses.

It's what we have learned to call "weight".
Weight.

In physics, there is no special distinction - no special names to distinguish - pushing forces from pulling forces. Of course, you can simply call it "a pushing force", if you want to make such a distinction.

gravity is a force that pulls us on to the ground and earth makes the gravity.In space there is no gravity (scientist call this zero gravity) so gravity isn't pulling the universe back because there is no gravity outside planets.

The passenger falsely perceives a phantom 'force' pulling him away from the center of the circle. It's the well-known but nonexistent phenomenon we call "centrifugal force".
