The atomic nucleus is held together by the strong atomic force. This force is attractive, regardless of the charge of the constituent particles.
Not asked, but answered for completeness sake, the electromagnetic force competes with the strong atomic force, causing a repulsive effect between protons that is a function of the size of the nucleus. Nuclei greater than 82=lead are unstable due to this competition. Also, the weak atomic force enters in, causing instability as a function of proton/neutron ratio and other factors.
What else can I help you with?
What forced holds the nucleus together?
The strong nuclear force and the weak nuclear force act within the nucleus to hold it together.
Do protons hold nucleus together?
No, the strong nuclear force does.
What hold the cell part together?
The nucleus of a cell is surrounded and held together by the nuclear envelope. The nucleus of the cell contains hereditary information.
What does binding energy measure?
The energy used to hold the nucleus together
Do the protons and the nucleus hold an atom together?
Not in any meaningful way.
What forces hold an atom's nucleus together?
The primary forces that hold an atom's nucleus together are the strong nuclear force, which is attractive and overcomes the electrostatic repulsion between positively charged protons, and the weak nuclear force, which is responsible for certain types of radioactive decay. These forces play a critical role in maintaining the stability of the atom's nucleus.
Neutrons help hold the nucleus together?
The force between nucleons is called nuclear force.
Which hold the nucleus together?
the strong nuclear force (yes, this is it's real scientific name!)
What fundamental force hold the subatomic particles together in the nucleus?
The fundamental force that holds subatomic particles together in the nucleus is the strong nuclear force. This force is responsible for binding protons and neutrons together in the atomic nucleus.
What happens when strong forces are not sufficient enough to hold an unstable nuclei together?
When strong forces are not strong enough to hold an unstable nucleus together, the nucleus can undergo radioactive decay. This can result in the release of particles or energy, such as alpha or beta particles, to stabilize the nucleus.
What forces hold atoms together?
The nucleus is held together by a combination of both the strong and weak forces.The electrons are held in their orbitals about the nucleus by the electromagnetic force.That leaves only gravity, which does not participate in holding atoms together.
What holds the nucleus together between protons?
The strong nuclear force is the fundamental force that holds the nucleus together by overcoming the electromagnetic force that causes protons to repel each other. This force acts over very short distances within the nucleus and is responsible for binding protons and neutrons together to form the atomic nucleus.
