Q152 / 180 · KCET 2014 · Physics

A force between two protons is same as the force between proton and neutron. The nature of
the force is

  • A
    Weak nuclear force
  • Correct answer
    B
    Strong nuclear force
  • C
    Electrical force
  • D
    Gravitational force

Solution

A force between two protons is same as the force between proton and a neutron. The nature of the force is strong
nuclear force.
The force is extremely repulsive at short distance of about half the diameter of a nucleon and is slightly attractive at
separation of few nucleon diameter

Hence, the correct answer is option: 'B'.
