The correct answer is the Weight of a body.

 Important Points

  • The electromagnetic force is a type of physical interaction that occurs between electrically charged particles. It acts between charged particles and a combination of all-electric and magnetic forces. It can be repulsive or attractive.  
  • The electromagnetic nature is to interact without coming into contact. friction is the electromagnetic force between atoms that may not actually touch.
  • The weight of a body is not electromagnetic in nature. The weight of the body is the Gravitational force acting on it and this force depends on the acceleration due to gravity.
  • Tension force is the force that is transmitted through a cable, rope, wire, or string when it is pulled tight by forces acting from opposite ends.
  • The electrical force in spring is due to the flow of electrons at both ends to maintain equilibrium.
