The strong nuclear force, also called binding energy, holds quarks together to form protons and neutrons. Residual binding energy, also called the nuclear force, holds protons and neutrons together to form the nucleus of an atom.
This holds true up to about atomic number 83 (bismuth), at which point the electromagnetic force, a repulsive force for protons, starts to overcome the distance barrier of binding energy and make the nucleus unstable. This makes the atoms starting at bismuth and above be radioactive.
Additionally, the presence or absence of extra neutrons, i.e. isotopes, even in light nuclides, can, due to the weak interaction, makes the nucleus be unstable, and radioactive.
The force that holds the nucleus together is the strong nuclear force. This force is mediated by particles called gluons, and it is responsible for binding protons and neutrons together in the nucleus.
No, a force called the "strong nuclear force" holds the nucleus together.
The strong nuclear force and the weak nuclear force act within the nucleus to hold it together.
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.
An atomic nucleus is held together by what is known to physicists as the strong nuclear force.
"strong nuclear force"
You get nuclear energy from the binding energy (Strong Atomic Force) that holds the nucleus together.
The force that holds protons and neutrons together in an atomic nucleus is called the strong nuclear force.
The strong atomic force holds protons (and neutrons) together in the nucleus.
The strong nuclear force holds together protons and neutrons in the nucleus of an atom. It is one of the fundamental forces in nature that overcomes the electromagnetic repulsion between positively charged protons, binding them together in a stable nucleus.
That would be the "strong nuclear force".
The strong nuclear force is the force that holds the nucleus together. This force is one of the four fundamental forces of nature and is responsible for binding protons and neutrons in the nucleus. It is a short-range force that is stronger than the electromagnetic force at nuclear distances.
