The force of an object pressing, pushing, or pulling on another object

Real World Example

Imagine trying to fit too many clothes into a suitcase for a vacation. This is similar to how an object's force presses, pushes, or pulls on another object. Just as the clothes create pressure inside the suitcase, causing it to bulge and stretch, an object exerts force on another, leading to stress and potential deformation.
