physics have multiple forces in it.

A force is any push or pull. It can be an impulse force, constant force, or variable. Newtons Laws gives us the layout of how the different forces interact within the universe. The 2nd summation of all Forces = mass of the object * its acceleration. From that anything that has an acceleration has at least 1 force applied to it. Friction, Gravity, Mechanical, and tension are just a few out there.

The 4 fundamental forces are gravity, the weak nuclear, the strong nuclear, and the Electromagnetism are the only ones that can't be broken down (under normal conditions). All others are a form of these four. For example Friction is a form of Electromagnetism, as the tiny bumps that create friction are made up of atoms that want to repel each others valence electrons.

Force is equal to mass x acceleration, and it is used to determine how much work is exerted on an object.
