Nuclear particles are held together by?
The protons and neutrons in the nucleus of an atom are held together by the strong force.
What force causes the objects in space to be held together?
gravity
What are nucleons held together by?
The Standard Model of particle theory states that nucleons are bound together primarily by the Strong Interaction Force. These forces keep protons and neutrons together.
What force holds atoms together in a substance?
the nucleus of an atom has protons and neutrons, and electrons spin in orbitals around the nucleus. since opposites attract, electrons are pulled towards the protons in the nucleus, but their spin-velocity is like planets in a solar system: they keep approximately the same distance from the sun, even though the sun's gravitational pull is extremely strong.
Why does a block of wood held underwater rise to the surface when released?
Because the weight of the wood is less than the weight of an equal volume of water. So when it's completely submerged, the upward buoyant force on it is greater than the downward gravitational force on it. The wood accelerates in the direction of the net force on it, exactly as one wood expect.
A cloud of interstellar gas is held together by?
the gravitational force
Are Water molecules are held together by ionic bonds?
No, all molecules are held together by covalent bonds.
Atoms are held together with covalent attraction?
Atoms are not held togetherinternally by covalent attraction, but instead by the so-called "strong force" of quantum theory. However, two or more atoms can be held together in molecules by covalent attraction.
What would happen if electromagnetice force were not intrinsically so much stronger than gravitational force?
Everything would fall apart. Whilst gravity holds everything together at a large scale, on the atomic scale, everything is held together by the electromagnetic force.
How are molecules held together in an ionic solid?
electrostatic force of attraction between the positively charged cations and negatively charged anions
What is billions of stars held together by gravitational attraction?
it is a galaxy.
Billions of stars held together by gravitational attraction?
It is a galaxy.
Is an orbiting astronaut subject to zero gravitational force?
The fact that he is orbiting means he is being held by the gravitational force of the Earth. If not for that, he would be headed out of the solar system.
What is a water molecule being held by?
Molecules are held together by Pepper and cheese.
What hydrogen atoms and the oxygen atom in a water molecule are held by?
It all has to do with string theory. There are tiny "strings", as physicists call it, that help the molecules overcome the gravitational and electrostatic forces and bind them together.
Two atoms that share electrons are held together by what bonds?
Atoms are held together by a few forces, depending on how small you look. Quarks (the sub-atomic particles that make up protons and neutrons) are held together by gluons. Protons and neutrons are held together by the strong nuclear force. The nucleus and electrons are held together by the electromagnetic force.
What is the force that holds compounds together?
Anions and cations are held together by ionic bonds. Metal atoms are held together by metallic bonds. Nonmetals are held together by covalent bonds.
