Question

Identify the correct statement/statements:
a) At greater distances nuclear forces are negligible
b) Nuclear forces are non central forces
c) Nuclear forces are weakest in nature
d) Nuclear forces are charge dependent forces

• A. a, b
• B. b, c
• C. c, d
• D. a, d

Answer 1

The correct option is A a, b

Nuclear forces properties :
1) They will act upto nearly one ferms. Beyond that they become negligible.
2) Charge independent : $F_{pp}=F_{pn}=F_{nn}$
3) They do not act along the line joining the centres of the nuclears, so they are non-central forces.
4) Nuclear forces are strong in nature.
So, correct choice is option A.
