I think of “attraction” (as in dynamical processes) as a verb. (I realize it’s gramatically a noun, but ontologically it’s a verb.)
For a simple English trick to get verbs that are unequivocally verbs, start your thought with “to.” So “to kick.” “To open.” “To attract.” Thinking of a noun as a noun is not as good an example :D
Yes, yes, not every thought that starts with “to” contains a verb, and not every verb is a thought that starts with “to.” It’s merely a useful way to think of verbs if they’re eluding me.

To arms!
To hell and back!
To my dear friend and her new husband, on this happy day!
