Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: D
A non-contact force acts on an object without physical contact.
Examples of non-contact forces:
Gravitational Force
Magnetic Force
Electrostatic Force
Friction Force acts only when two surfaces are in contact with each other. Therefore, it is a contact force, not a non-contact force.
Hence, the correct answer is Friction Force.
