Force is just a fancy word for pushing or pulling. If I push on something or pull on it, then I am applying a force to it. Some well-known forces in nature include gravity and magnetism. Gravity produces a force that pulls objects towards each other, like a person towards the ground. And magnetism produces a force that can either pull two magnets together or push them apart, depending on how theyre lined up.
