- Forces that keep the nucleons bound in the nucleus are called nuclear forces.
- Characteristics of the nuclear force:
- Nuclear forces are short-range forces. These do not exist at large distances greater than 10-15 m.
- Nuclear forces are the strongest forces in nature.
- These are attractive force and causes the stability of the nucleus.
- These forces are charge-independent.
- Nuclear forces are non-central forces.
