Match the following terms and definitions

Draggable itemCorresponding Item
a push or pull applied to an object
B. Force
The category of force in which the object that is applying the force is physically touching the object receiving the force (or physically touching something connected to the object that is receiving the force.)
C. Net Force
The category of force in which the 2+ interacting objects are not physically touching, yet a push or pull force is able to be exerted from one to the other.
E. Newton
This combination of forces always produces motion
