The Stong Nuclear Force

  • The strong nuclear force is an attractive force that is stronger than the electronstatic force.
  • The strong nuclear force has a very stort range of upto 5 femtometres (5x10^15)
  • The strong nuclear force works equally between all nucleons.
  • The strong nuclear force is repulsive at very short ranges (0.5 femtometres).
