Solution
The correct option is
B
False
Force can be applied in any direction. Force is a push and pulls combination.
When force is applied and the object moves towards the application of force is pulled.
When the force applied to the object in the direction away from the object it is push.
Example- Two-way doors open and closes, pull and push
Hence the statement is false.
