Question

What do we mean by weak nuclear force and strong nuclear force? Explain their characteristics.

Answer 1

Strong Nuclear Force
The strong nuclear force is one of the four natural forces in the world and it is the strongest. It holds the protons and neutrons together in the atom. Strong Nuclear force gives the atomic bomb its power. The atomic bomb used the Uranium-235 atom and split the protons and neutrons. This unleashed a lot of energy which was expelled explosively. This strong nuclear force is being used to supply our world with energy. Instead of using fossil fuels we are now using nuclear power which is much cleaner.

Weak Nuclear Force
It is one of the four fundamental forces of nature and is responsible for the radioactive decay of subatomic particles. It provides sunlight and the age of the earth through decaying uranium.
