You can develop a solution using str2func() to turn the string into a function handle.

First generate a list of 10 strings, and store their handles

for count = 1:10
  function_names{count} = sprintf('Force_%d',count);
  function_handles{count} = str2func( function_names{count} );
end

To evaluate any function use the command,
