Solution
The correct options are
B Gravitational Force
C Muscular force
A weightlifter uses his muscles in his legs, back and arms in order to lift huge weights. This type of force used is called muscular force and is a type of contact force as we have to actually get in contact with the body on which we are applying this force. This force acts in the opposite direction of the gravitational force, which tries to pull it down.
