Question Answer
Muscular force The force applied with the help of muscles is called muscular force. For eg : person lifting weight
Frictional Force When two surfaces rub against each other, it gives rise to frictional force. E.g. match stick rubbed against the match box It always acts against the direction of motion.
Frictional Force Force of friction is less between two smooth surfaces. E.g.: walking on oily floor
Frictional Force Force of friction is greater between two rough surfaces. E.g.: Running on the ground
Gravitational Force The force applied by the earth to pull objects towards itself is called gravitational force. E.g. Fruit falling to the ground
