That is usually called pressure. For forces within solids, it may also refer to the stress.

No, on a level surface, the sum of all applied forces equals zero if the object is not accelerating. Weight is the force exerted by gravity on an object and is equal to the mass of the object multiplied by the acceleration due to gravity.
Tides result from differences in the gravitational forces exerted at different points on the Earth's surface by another body (such as the Moon).
Yes, there are typically three main forces acting on a pen: gravity pulling it downward, the normal force exerted by the surface it rests on pushing it upward, and the force exerted by your hand when writing or moving it.
It arises from the enormous gravitational forces exerted by Jupiter which distort and pull at the surface of Io.
The two forces acting on a rolling ball are the force of gravity pulling it downward and the normal force exerted by the surface it is rolling on.
Action-Reaction Forces.
The forces that act on a stationary object are typically the gravitational force pulling the object down and the normal force exerted by the surface supporting the object.
The force exerted on wet clothes when twisted and squeezed is a combination of tension and compression forces. When twisting, tension forces are exerted along the fibers of the fabric, while squeezing creates compression forces perpendicular to the surface being squeezed. Together, these forces help wring out excess water from the fabric.
When a cart is at rest on a flat surface, the forces acting on it are balanced. The main forces are the gravitational force pulling the cart downward and the normal force exerted by the surface pushing the cart upward. These two forces are equal in magnitude and opposite in direction, resulting in a net force of zero.
