It is the strong nuclear force. The force holding an atomic nucleus together is properly called nuclear binding energy, and not the strong force. Nuclear binding energy might be called the residual strong force, and it (binding energy) is formed by mediation of the stong interaction, which in actuality is the force that holds individual protons and neutrons together. Use the link to a related question with correct data in it. If the question originated as part of a homework assignment, the teacher should be apprised of what WikiAnswers is and should be directed to this and the other relavant post. Or just to Wikipedia, which is referenced in this question and that other question, too. As long as "false information" is still circulating, we'll step up to correct it. The question was left unedited in hopes of correcting "bad data" that still pops up. Unlearn the incorrect, and learn the correct.

What is the reveal the force that holds the nucleus together?

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.

How is the Atom's nucleus held together?

The residual strong force. The strong force (or color force) is what holds quarks together to form protons and neutrons. The residual strong force then holds the protons and neutrons together in the nucleus.


Where does the strong force come from?

The strong force is one of the four fundamental forces in nature that holds protons and neutrons together in the nucleus of an atom. It is mediated by particles called gluons, which interact with quarks to create the force that holds the nucleus together.


Can you give some examples of strong force?

In physics, the "Strong Force" is the force that holds the nucleus of the atom together. It is the strongest force in nature.


What is the diffirence between nuclear force and weak nuclear force?

Yes. The Strong Nuclear Force is the force that holds the protons and neutrons together in the nucleus and is transmitted by gluons. It is the glue that holds the nucleus together. The Weak Force is responsible for the decay of radioactive elements. It ejects neutrons from the nucleus of a radioactive atom.


What holds an atom together?

An atom is held together by the strong nuclear force, which overcomes the electrostatic repulsion between positively charged protons in the nucleus. This force keeps protons and neutrons together in the nucleus, while electrons are attracted to the nucleus by the electromagnetic force.


What is in the nucleus of an atom with strong force?

All atoms have strong force. Strong force holds the universe together. Without it, we would be annihilated.


What force holds an atom to its nucleus?

its proton and its nucleus will have two protons so its electron and atom
