What force types change the direction of motion

Forces affect how objects move. They may cause motion; they may also slow, stop, or change the direction of motion of an object that is already moving. Since force cause changes in the speed or direction of an object, we can say that forces cause changes in velocity. Remember that acceleration is a change in velocity. Let’s say an object is moving along a table on earth, suddenly the finite table ends, resulting in the object being present in the air, which means there is no normal contact force N to combat the force by gravity mg, which is why there is an acceleration downwards. This proves as a projectile motion since the direction of motion start changing from horizontal to vertical. Another example is one throwing an object up. It moves up and slows down, reaching its maximum point, leading to it starting to move downwards. This too is a change in motion.
