Weak interactions are interactions between subatomic particles that are mediated by the weak nuclear force. The first such interaction discovered was Beta Decay in radioactivity, where a neutron decayed into a proton, an electron, and a neutrino. The weak force is mediated by the W+, W-, and Z intermediate vector bosons being transferred between quarks.

What is the difference between nuclear energy and thermal energy?
Thermal energy is the kinetic energy of the particles, while nuclear energy is the bond energy within the nucleus from strong interaction and weak interaction.
Is strong nuclear force is strongest of all 4 fundamental forces?
The strong interaction (strong force) and weak interaction (weak force) as well as the electromagnetic force are fundamental forces. The only one "missing" from this lineup is gravity, the fourth fundamental force in the universe.
What are the 4 basic forces in nature?
The four fundamental forces of nature are gravity, the electromagnetic force, the strong force (strong nuclear force or strong interaction), and the weak force(weak nuclear force or weak interaction).
Define interaction force and interaction distance?
interaction force is the interaction in a force, and interaction distance is the distance in interaction there for its all said in the name.
What are all the forces used in physics?
The entirety of forces used in Physics is long and strenuous, but the forces from which these deviate from are called the Four Fundamental Forces or Interactions These are; The Strong Nuclear Interaction which binds nuclei and quarks together, the The Weak Nuclear Interaction which is responsible for radiation, The Electromagnetic Force which is, obviously, responsible electricity and magnetism, and Gravitation
Is this vanderwalls interaction is weak molecular interaction?
very weak
What are the force of natures?
The four fundamental forces of nature are gravity, the electromagnetic force, the strong force (strong nuclear force or strong interaction), and the weak force(weak nuclear force or weak interaction).
What are the property of force?
There are four properties of force: gravitation, electromagnetism, the weak interaction, and the strong interaction.
What is the glue that holds atoms together?
They are actually two glues. The names of them are the Strong Interaction and the Weak Interaction.
Do hydrogen bonds have to break in order for water to increase in temperature?
a hydrogen bond is a weak interaction involving a hydrogen atom and fluorine, oxygen, or nitrogen atom...... there for it must form, not break because it is a weak interaction!
What is a weak molecular interaction?
a van der Waals interactiona hydrogen bond
Is a hydrogen bond a weak molecular interaction?
No, hydrogen bonding is a strong intermolecular force.
How does the W boson affect beta radiation?
The W boson is the carrier of the weak force (weak interaction), and the weak force is the "boss" of beta decay. The weak interaction mediates the changes that take place in an atomic nucleus just prior to the emission of a beta particle. Let's look at that. In beta decay, one of two things happens. One is that an up quark in a proton becomes a down quark, and the proton becomes a neutron. The weak interaction mediates this, and a W+ boson appears, then becomes a positron and a neutrino. In the other case, a down quark in a neutron becomes an up quark, and the neutron becomes a proton. The weak interaction mediates this, too, and a W- boson appears, and then becomes an electron and an antineutrino. You can use the links below to learn more.
Are neutrinos mediated by electromagnetic interaction?
No, neutrinos are mediated by weak interactions, Photons are mediated by electromagnetic interactions.
Are covalent bonds considered to be a weak molecular interaction?
Covalent bonds, they are stronger than the rest of the options.
What do you call a type of weak interaction that stabilizes the native confirmation of a biomolecule or supramolecular complex?
Non covalent
Is a covalent bond a weak molecular interaction?
No, a covalent bond is a chemical bond that holds a molecule together.
