To Explain:The force inside the nucleus thatacts to hold the nucleus together.
Answer to Problem 46A
Strong nuclear force
Explanation of Solution
Introduction:
Protons are generally the particles that carry a positive charge and are situated in the nucleus of an atom.The electrostatic repulsive force is acts between same types of electric charges.
Strong nuclear force is one of the strongest forces that helps to hold the nucleus together which has protons and neutrons present inside.
To overcome the repulsive force inside the nucleus, the strong nuclear force is present between nucleons.
Conclusion:
Strong nuclear force helps to hold the nucleus together.
