|
normal reaction
|

|
|
friction

is the force that opposites the relative motion of two surfaces and acts along the surfaces ! (always acts opposite to the direction of motion) !
|
|
tension
|
when a string is stretch it has equal and opposite forces on it's ends pushing outwards
|
|
compression
|
when a rot is compressed it has equal and opposite forces on it's ends pushing inwards ( in this opposite to the tension force)
|
|
