The nuclear forces between different nucleons

The nuclear forces between different nucleons are strong enough and attractive so as to overcome

The nuclear forces between different nucleons are strong enough and attractive so as to overcome the repulsive electrostatic forces.

This is why the nucleus remains stable.

Answer 2

Nuclear stability is linked to its number of nucleons (neutrons and protons). The nucleons interact with each other through the strong nuclear force, this must overcome the electrostatic repulsion between the protons to make the nucleus stable.
