The correct answer is: Both a and b


    • A force that changes the direction of an object towards you, would be a pull. On the other hand, if it moves away, it is a push.
    • While writing on a paper we use our force of pushing (pressing) to make friction between the paper and pencil.
    • We also drag (pull our pen ) in writing.
