Question

State tzvo characteristic properties of nuclear force. (All India 2008)
Answer:
(i) Nuclear forces are the strongest force in nature.
(ii) They are saturated forces.
(iii) They are charge independent.​

Answer 1

Answer:

option 1

Explanation:

nuclear forces are the strongest forces in nature

Answer 2

Answer:

a) The characteristic properties of nuclear force -

i) The nuclear force is short-ranged strong attractive forces.

ii) The nuclear forces between proton-proton, proton-neutron and neutron-neutron are approximately same.

iii) The nuclear force is independent of electric charge. 

b) The potential energy (PE) vs separation graph is shown in the figure. The conclusions drawn from the graph are -

i) The nuclear force is a short-range force.

ii) The nuclear force is repulsive when the separation is less 1 fm (1fermi=10−15m) and it is attractive when the separation is greater than 1 fm.
