    External forces act on a system from outside its boundaries, such as wind forces on a building. Internal forces act within a system between its components, such as tension forces in the cables of a suspension bridge. Some examples of external forces include wind, gravity, friction, contact forces from collisions. Internal forces include tension, compression, shear and torsional forces within a structure or physical system. The distinction between external and internal forces is important in physics, engineering and understanding interactions within and between systems.
