Nuclear Forces (Physics)
1. Nuclear forces (also known as nuclear interactions or strong forces) are the forces that act between two or more nucleons.
2. The nuclear force is a force that acts between the protons and neutrons of atoms.
The nuclear force is the force that holds protons and neutrons together in a nucleus.
This force can exist between protons, neutrons, and protons. It can also exist between neutrons and neutrons. This force is responsible for the nucleus’s stability. All atoms (excluding hydrogen) have more than one proton in their nucleus. Protons are also positively charged. In addition, similar charges repel each other. So, what keeps these nucleons together in a nucleus? Shouldn’t they repel each other? This is where a strong nuclear force may help.
Following Coulomb’s law, the charge of protons, which is +1e, tends to push them away from each other with a strong electric field repulsive force. However, nuclear force is powerful enough to hold them together and overcome that barrier at close range.
