The ones that are certain are

  • Normal
  • Gravity
  • Friction

If you have a normal, and the player slides into 2nd, and stops (which he must before he is tagged), then there must be friction involved. There must be gravity, or he would keep going up.

I don't think there is tension. There might be some Air Resistance, but that force is very tiny. Don't be surprised if you answer includes Air Resistance, but I won't try it to begin with.
