Machines pushing or pulling forces?
Machines can exert both pushing and pulling forces depending on their design and intended function. The ability to apply forces in different directions is essential for various mechanical applications. Pushing: Machines can exert a pushing force to move objects away from their point of application. For instance, a hydraulic press applies force to compress materials, or a bulldozer pushes soil or debris forward. Pulling: Machines can also exert a pulling force to move objects towards their point of application. A winch pulling a heavy load, or a tractor pulling a trailer are common examples of machines using pulling forces.
In which direction does gravitional force apply?
The concept of direction in relation to gravity is complex. Gravity is a property of matter and can be visulised as a force pulling towards the centre of mass of that matter. Thus YOU as a body of matter have a mass and a gravitational force of your own. However, on the Earth, your mass is much smaller than Earth's so you feel Earth's gravity pulling you towards its centre. On the Moon you woud feel yourself being pulled towards the centre of mass of the Moon. Thus as you can see what happens applies depends on where you are - but - it is always towards the centre of mass.
