Best Answer

The four forces are:

  • gravity - very long range and always attractive
  • electromagnetic - long range
  • weak nuclear force - very short range, limited to atomic nucleus
  • strong nuclear force - very short range, limited to atomic nucleus

Name the interaction that binds protons and neutrons together in a nucleus?

Protons and neutrons are held together by the strong nuclear force, they have an attraction towards each other that overpowers the electromagnetic force that repels them. This strong interaction, as it is also known, only works over short distances, microscopic to be exact.


What is the name of the scale that only works in a certain situation?

I'm trying to find out myself, I'll tell you if I find out..


Is there a curvature to space?

Yes, caused by gravity. (only works on the very large scale because gravity is very weak.)


What is gravitational force which causes the planet to orbit the sun?

It is the gravitational force of the sun. The sun is the biggest body in the solar system. So in turn if you know gravity, the smaller body always rotates around bigger body. But this can only happen on a planetary scale.


Can a scale measure balance?

No, it only can measure weight.

Is sculpture usually large in scale?

No A sculpture can be of any size and shape, only the reach of one's tools determine how large or how small a sculpture can be. There are sculptures made in microscopic scale already.


Why is the reading on the spring scale equal to the friction force in each case?

A scale is a force indicator. The reading on a scale is simply telling you what force is being applied. If you try dragging an object across the floor using a spring scale, you are applying a force to the spring scale which is applying a force to the object. The spring scale cannot put more force on the object than you are putting on the scale, and it has to put all of the force that you put on it on the object you are pulling. The only other force on the object besides your pulling force is friction. If the object is traveling at a constant velocity, the forces on it are equal. That means that your pulling force has to equal the force of friction. The scale that you are using will read the amount of force you are putting on the object which will tell you how much friction is pulling backwards on the object because these forces are equal strengths.


Compare the macroscopic world to the submicroscopic world?

The difference between the microscopic world and the macroscopic world lie in their definitions. The microscopic world is so small as to only be visible with a microscope. The macroscopic world is visible to the naked eye.


Does the strong nuclear force work for neutrons and electrons?

The strong nuclear force acts only on quarks and son it works only on protons and neutrons but not electrons

Which force has a longer range the electric force or the strong force?

The electric force has a longer range. The strong force, as the name implies, is strong, however, it only works for a short range, namely, the range of the nucleus.
