Contact vs Non-contact: "FANT vs GME"
Contact forces: Friction, Air resistance, Normal contact, Tension (FANT)
Non-contact forces: Gravity, Magnetic, Electrostatic (GME)
For Weight vs Mass: "Mass is Mine, Weight is Where" — your mass is the same whether you're in London, on the Moon, or on Mars. Weight depends on WHERE you are (the local gravitational field).
