Which of the following is an example of hostile aggression?

Hostile aggression is behavior intended to hurt someone, usually driven by anger. Kicking someone during a heated argument fits because the action is aimed at harming the other person. Tackling a ball carrier is part of the rules of football, pushing to reach a door first is goal-directed rather than primarily intended to hurt, and a scripted slap is performed rather than genuinely aggressive.
