The process you are referring to is called "impact cratering", where a small object like a meteoroid or asteroid collides with a larger body like a planet or moon, creating a crater upon impact. This process is common in space and has been observed on many planetary surfaces in our solar system.
When a charged object interacts with a neutral object, it can induce a charge separation in the neutral object, causing it to become polarized. This can lead to attraction or repulsion between the charged object and the neutral object. However, no transfer of charge occurs between the two objects in this interaction.
No, a reaction force is not a contact force. It is a force that occurs when an object interacts with its environment or another object, and it is equal in magnitude and opposite in direction to the action force.
induction
Conduction is the process of heat transfer that occurs when two objects are in contact with each other. Heat travels from the warmer object to the cooler object through direct contact between the molecules of the two objects.
When light strikes particles larger than its wavelength, it scatters in all directions. This is known as Mie scattering, which differs from Rayleigh scattering that occurs with smaller particles. Mie scattering causes light to lose intensity and change direction as it interacts with the larger particles.

Emission is the process where an object releases energy (such as light) while absorption is the process where an object takes in energy (such as light). In emission, energy is being emitted from the object, whereas in absorption, energy is being absorbed by the object.

The process of charging an object without direct contact is called induction. This occurs when a charged object is brought close to a neutral object, causing the charges in the neutral object to reposition themselves and create a temporary charge separation.
The friction that occurs when an object rolls over a surface is called rolling friction. It is generally lower than static or kinetic friction because the object's motion is distributed over a larger area during rolling. Rolling friction is dependent on factors such as the nature of the surfaces in contact and the weight of the object.
When vibrations match an object's natural frequency, resonance occurs. This causes the object to absorb more energy and vibrate with a higher amplitude. In some cases, resonance can lead to structural failures or damage to the object.
A particle scatters light if it is larger than the wavelength of light. This is because scattering occurs when the size of the particle is comparable to or larger than the wavelength of the light waves it interacts with, causing the light to be redirected in different directions.
