how to add force?

Question

This is my code:

How can I add downward force?

 public class PlayerMovement2 : MonoBehaviour
 {
     float playerHeight = 2f;
 
     [SerializeField] Transform orientation;
 
     [Header("Movement")]
     [SerializeField] float moveSpeed = 6f;
     [SerializeField] float airMultiplier = 0.4f;
     float movementMultiplier = 10f;
 
     [Header("Sprinting")]
     [SerializeField] float walkSpeed = 4f;
     [SerializeField] float sprintSpeed = 6f;
     [SerializeField] float acceleration = 10f;
 
     [Header("Jumping")]
     public float jumpForce = 5f;
 
     [Header("Keybinds")]
     [SerializeField] KeyCode jumpKey = KeyCode.Space;
     [SerializeField] KeyCode sprintKey = KeyCode.LeftShift;
 
     [Header("Drag")]
     [SerializeField] float groundDrag = 6f;
     [SerializeField] float airDrag = 2f;
 
     float horizontalMovement;
     float verticalMovement;
 
     [Header("Ground Detection")]

Add a ConstantForce component to the game object in the inspector.

 ConstantForce customGravity;
 void Start()
 {
     customGravity = GetComponent<ConstantForce>();
     customGravity.force = new Vector3(0, 1, 0) * myScale; //set how you like, maybe
         // depending on rb.mass or other things
     customGravity.enabled = true;
 }
 void Update()
 {
     //the rigid body will add customGravity if enabled.
 }

@rh_galaxy . MissingComponentException: There is no 'ConstantForce' attached to the "Player" game object, but a script is trying to access it. You probably need to add a ConstantForce to the game object "Player". Or your script needs to check if the component is attached before using it. UnityEngine.ConstantForce.set_force (UnityEngine.Vector3 value) (at :0) PlayerMovement2.Start () (at Assets/Scrips/RB/PlayerMovement2.cs:73) . This error cames up when I run it

you can use something like this:
if (grounded) AddForce(Vector3.down gravityForce 100f);
