Whether they are, or are not, exerted depends on the physical situation. For example, magnets won't lose their magnetic force if you make them touch. And if objects stick together, they are certainly exerting a force on one another.

What is the action and reaction force of touching your finger to your nose?

When you touch your finger to your nose, the action force is the force exerted by your finger onto your nose. The reaction force is the equal and opposite force exerted by your nose back onto your finger, as described by Newton's third law of motion. These two forces are known as an action-reaction pair and occur simultaneously whenever two objects interact with each other.


How does thigmotropism work?

Thigmotropism is a response in plants where they grow in response to touch or contact. When a plant comes into contact with an object, it triggers changes in cell growth and hormone distribution that result in bending towards or away from the stimulus. Thigmotropism helps plants respond to physical forces and optimize their growth in response to their environment.


When you touch a hot object what part of the brain is the information sent to?

When you touch a hot object, the information is sent to the somatosensory cortex in the parietal lobe of the brain. This region processes sensory information related to touch, including temperature.


When you touch a cold object state whether heat energy flows from the object to your Hand or from your hand to the object?

Heat has the natural tendency to flow from a warmer to a colder object. If your hand is warmer than the "cold object", then heat will flow from your hand to that object.


A plant that responds to touch is showing what?

A plant that responds to touch is exhibiting thigmotropism. Thigmotropism is a response where a plant changes its growth pattern in response to touch or contact with a solid object.

Are forces only exerted when objects touch each other?

No...


Do forces have to touch the object they are affecting?

No, forces such as gravity and electromagnetic do not touch objects directly they are known as non-contact forces.


Can a force be felt?

Yes, a force can be felt when it acts on an object. This is because forces can cause changes in an object's motion or shape, which can be perceived through our sense of touch. For example, when you push a door open, you can feel the force exerted on your hand.


Which applies a push or a pull to am object without actually touching it?

A push or pull can be applied to an object without touching it through magnetic or gravitational forces. For example, a magnet can attract or repel an object without direct contact, and gravitational forces can pull objects towards each other without physical touch.


How things move by touching it?

When you touch an object, the atoms in your hand and the object interact through forces such as electromagnetism. These forces cause the atoms in your hand to push against the atoms in the object, resulting in movement. This movement is what we perceive as the sensation of touch.


How can forces act on an object without touching?

Forces can act on an object without touching it through fields. In the case of gravitational forces, objects are attracted to each other through gravitational fields, without physical contact. Similarly, magnetic or electric fields can exert forces on objects without direct contact.


What type of forces are at work when objects touch each other?

Does induction require objects to touch?

No induction does not generally require the objects to touch. Induction can mean that one object induces an electrical change in the other object from a distance


How do you know if an object is solid?

An object is solid if it has a definite shape and volume, maintains its shape under normal conditions, and does not flow like a liquid. Solids also have strong intermolecular forces that hold their particles together.


What force does not have to touch an object to make it move?

Field forces. For Example, gravity and electrical forcesgravitymagneticelectro-staticstrong nuclearweak nuclearanti gravity (hypothetical)


Do atoms ever physically touch each other?

No, atoms do not physically touch each other because they are surrounded by electron clouds that repel each other due to electromagnetic forces.


What is a charge transfer between objects that touch each other called?

A charge transfer between objects that touch each other is called conduction. This occurs when electrons flow from a charged object to a neutral object when they come into contact.
