The strong nuclear force keeps the atomic nucleus together. Since protons all have the same charge they would repel one another and the nucleus would fly apart without the strong force. The weak force also acts on the atomic nucleus and is involved in radioactive decay and is responsible for radioactivity.

its the nuclear membrane No, the strong nuclear force holds the nucleus together. The strong nuclear force is caused by the force that hold quarks together.
What is the attractive force that overcomes the electric repulsion between protons?
The strong nuclear force, aka the strong interaction.
What 3 words holds protons and neutrons together in the nucleus?
The force between nucleons is called nuclear force.
What is the most powerful force?
The strongest force known is called the "strong force" or "strong nuclear force".
The strong force between protons and neutrons in a small nucleus and a large nucleus?
It is called strong nuclear force.
What is the strong nuclear force apex?
an attractive force that acts between protons and neutrons
What force is responsible for the repulsion between two positively-charge particles?
The strong nuclear force.
Does a strong nuclear force hold the nucleus together?
Yes, the strong force carried by meson exchanges between protons and/or neutrons.
Why protons are not repelled in nucleus?
Between protons and neutrons exist the residual strong force (nuclear force).
What holds neutrons inside the nucleus?
The "strong force," or sometimes called the "strong nuclear force." This is the exchange of gluons between the protons and neutrons.
