If you mean the 4 basic forces they are:
- Gravity,
- Electricity often called the force of electro-magnetism; which is also found as magnetism, the weak nuclear force and the strong nuclear force (the forces that keep atoms together and form the electrons smashing into the protons).
- We have tapped into gravity; elevators, cranes pulleys, ramps etc.
- We have tapped into electricity as you well know.
- We have tapped into magnetism, which is how motors and generators work; buy using a changing electrical field inside of a permanent magnetic field.
- We have not tapped into the strong or weak nuclear forces and since they are so minor and a form of electricity anyway there is no reason to tap into them.
Physics is the science of the natural world and although we know almost nothing about HOW gravity is created we do know orbital mechanics and other formulas based on the single formula F=ma. From this basic law all other laws in physics are derived (via calculus). The velocity, acceleration, and equations used in stress analysis are all laws of physics and F=ma in action. Even E=mc^2 is F=ma in another form.
Electricity is a basic force and we study it through analog systems which use capacitors, transistors, rectifiers, transformers, and other equipment to create things like your monitor, a radio and a computer. Electrical Engineers design the circuits, Chemical Engineers and Mechanical Engineers set up the assembly lines and process in which electronic and computer parts like chips are made.
Electricity is also studied via digital circuits which are computers that use transistors as gates for yes and no decisions and a magnetic memory in silicon chips and on hard drives. Computer Engineers study this, but normally use computer languages to control computers. They use digital design to make the actual circuits, but programming languages to program the machine that uses those circuits.

There is no one frequency known as "the electromagnetic frequency."
The electromagnetic spectrum is the range of all frequencies at which waves can occur, ranging from the bottom end of the radio frequencies at about 250 kHz through the ultraviolet end of the spectrum of light.
"Tap into" is not really a scientific concept. Different types of devices can detect electromagnetic waves at different ranges within the overall spectrum.
For more information, try an internet search on "electromagnetic spectrum."
Better yet, take some courses in basic sciences.
Good luck!

Question needs more details! What exactly is electro-magnetic frequency? Do you mean visible light frequencies? There are lots of other frequencies we can "tap" into, like microwaves, X-rays, infrared...look up em spectrum on wikipedia (or yahoo it!)

We can tap any force in some way. Strong atomic ,weak atomic, gravity, em, and optical/neutrino optical, neutrino ionization. Time is neutrinos flowing from galactic centers where supermassive dual funnel black holes break up large elementary particles into small ones, these opposing flows obviously fuel atomic mechanics.
