TYPES OF FORCES
We are surrounded by a variety of moving objects in our 
day –to-day lives. Cars , buses, airplanes, boats and 
animals are examples of moving objects. 
An object that is moving is said to be in motion.
What makes the ball 
Move? 
The man pushes the 
ball with his racket. 
What makes the car move? 
The man pushes the car. 
What makes the wagon move? 
The child pulls the wagon. 
In the above pictures the objects are being moved by a push or a pull. 
A push or a pull acting on objects is called a force.
TYPES OF FORCES 
1. Gravitational Force 
2. Magnetic Force 
3. Nuclear Force 
4. Muscular Force 
Fundamental 
Forces.
Gravitational force 
Gravitational force is the force with which objects 
pull one another. 
It is the gravitational force that keeps us bound to 
the earth. 
It also makes the Earth and other planets revolve 
around the sun.
Magnetic force is the force exerted by magnets on each 
other and metallic substances.
The nuclear force keeps together the most basic of elementary 
particles, the quarks. The quarks combine together to form the 
protons and neutrons in an atomic nucleus. They power of the nuclear 
force is 100 times that of electromagnetic force. This pulls together 
the quarks and forces them to fuse. It is also used in machines which 
require tremendous power to work like submarines and atom bombs.
It is the type of force which animals use to push or 
pull things.
1. An object that is moving is said to be in motion. 
2. A push or pull acting on an object is called force. 
3. The 4 types of forces are gravitational force, muscular, nuclear and magnetic
