if the opponent has their back to the ball handler would you apply the same criteria as an opponent facing a ball handler to determine if you have a block/charge?

If a player with the ball pushes off with with his arm, would you call a block on his opponent too using the same principles?
If two players go up for a rebound and the player behind pushes the opponent with inside position to get the ball , I take it that's a block in your world too?
Lah me.......
You're trying to apply guarding principles to non-guarding situations.
