Solution
-
A type of contact force from the options given is Normal reaction. Contact forces are those types of forces that result when the two interacting objects are perceived to be physically contacting each other.
-
A type of non-contact force from the options given is Electrostatic. Non-contact forces are those types of forces that result even when the two interacting objects are not in physical contact with each other, yet are able to exert a push or pull despite their physical separation.
