Electromagnetic forces arise from interactions between charged particles. Friction, tension, and elastic force are all contact forces resulting from electromagnetic interactions at the molecular level.

Weight, however, is the gravitational force acting on a mass due to another mass (like Earth). It is given by W=mg, where m is mass and g is gravitational acceleration. Gravity is a fundamental force, not electromagnetic.

Final Answer: Weight of a body
