no..normal force is exists if only if the object is contact with the surface.But tension is exists when the object is hanged with string..But the magnitude might same as we consider weight of the object.When we solve the resultant force by resolve the vertical axis,the resultant force will be the value of normal force and tension.In general they may same but in some situation they might different.

How is thrust different from force?

there is not much difference between thrust anf force...its just that thrust is the force acting perpendiclular to the surface thrust will always be either equal or greater than force.


Is the thrust force equal to friction force?

Yes they are equal because they are both forces and when the thrust of planes (for example) are high in the air, the thrust pulls the plane forward. While the friction force pushes the plane forward. Think of it as someone pushing you towards something that you don't want to go into, that is the same as thrust and friction forces because the thrust is pushing you forward and the friction force is the balance of it all.
