Applied Force
Force due to the action of muscles is called
applied force.It is also called muscular force.
Normal Force
It is a contact interaction force between surfaces.It
always acts perpendicular to the surfaces and out
of the surface.It comes from the microscopic
deformation of molecules modeling a system of
springs.
Frictional force comes from
interactions with a surface as an
object moves or tries to move
relative to the surface.
Tension Force
An applied force where the force is applied through a string,cable,rope etc..
Note that a tension force can only pull,it cannot push.We usually assume the
tension in a cable is the same everywhere in the cable.
Air Resistance Force
Force that acts in a direction opposite motion through a gas
is called air resistance force.It comes from cumulative
interaction with air molecules.It increases as the velocity
through the gas increases.It also increases as the area
normal to the direction of motion increases.

Spring force:
Spring force comes from displacement of
molecules.It is always opposite the
displacement of spring.
