  2. Force - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Force

    All other forces in nature derive from these four fundamental interactions operating within quantum mechanics, including the constraints introduced by the Schrödinger equation and the Pauli exclusion principle. [67] For example, friction is a manifestation of the electromagnetic force acting between atoms of two surfaces.

  3. Fundamental interaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fundamental_interaction

    The modern (perturbative) quantum mechanical view of the fundamental forces other than gravity is that particles of matter do not directly interact with each other, but rather carry a charge, and exchange virtual particles (gauge bosons), which are the interaction carriers or force mediators. For example, photons mediate the interaction of ...

  6. Friction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Friction

    In many other cases roughness effects are dominant, for example in rubber to road friction. [52] Surface roughness and contact area affect kinetic friction for micro- and nano-scale objects where surface area forces dominate inertial forces. [53] The origin of kinetic friction at nanoscale can be rationalized by an energy model. [54]

  7. Non-contact force - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Non-contact_force

    The most familiar non-contact force is gravity, which confers weight. [1] In contrast, a contact force is a force which acts on an object coming physically in contact with it. [1] All four known fundamental interactions are non-contact forces: [2] Gravity, the force of attraction that exists among all bodies that have mass. The force exerted on ...

  8. Fifth force - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fifth_force

    In physics, a fifth force refers to a hypothetical fundamental interaction (also known as fundamental force) beyond the four known interactions in nature: gravitational, electromagnetic, strong nuclear, and weak nuclear forces. Some speculative theories have proposed a fifth force to explain various anomalous observations that do not fit ...
