The strong nuclear force, also called binding energy, holds quarks together to form protons and neutrons. Residual binding energy, also called the nuclear force, holds protons and neutrons together to form the nucleus of an atom.
This holds true up to about atomic number 83 (bismuth), at which point the electromagnetic force, a repulsive force for protons, starts to overcome the distance barrier of binding energy and make the nucleus unstable. This makes the atoms starting at bismuth and above be radioactive.
Additionally, the presence or absence of extra neutrons, i.e. isotopes, even in light nuclides, can, due to the weak interaction, makes the nucleus be unstable, and radioactive.
Without the strong nuclear force being present, the electrostatic repulsive force between the positively charged protons would lead to the nucleus disintegrating, as gravity alone between the particles is not strong enough to hold it together. The nucelar strong force is far stronger than the electrostatic repulsion in smaller nuclei.
As the size of the nucleus increases, the electrostatic repulsion becomes greater than the strong nuclear force, as the SNF weakens. This leads to radioactive decay in atoms.

The strong nuclear force is what holds the atoms together, so that we don't just have a bunch of quarks and other sub-atomic particles bouncing around.
strong nuclear force. The nucleus is held together by both the strong nuclear force and the weak nuclear force. The electron is bond to the nucleus by electro-static forces.
The force between nucleons is called nuclear force.
Hi, Ill try to answer this question. In the nucleus, there are two main forces which act. These are; 1. Strong nuclear force & 2. Electrostatic forces The electrostatic force, is the repulsive force which acts between the positively charged protons. This is because like charges repel. (You can see this in action if you place 2 magnets with the north poles facing one another and try to move them together.) The strong nuclear force, is a short-range force, which acts to hold the nucleus together. As the number of nucleons (neutrons and protons) increases, so does the strong nuclear force. As such, it is really the strong nuclear force which holds the nucleus together. Hope this helped.

Strong nuclear force
Strong nuclear forces hold the nucleus together: the nucleus is actually enveloped in what can be described as a nuclear envelope.
its the nuclear membrane No, the strong nuclear force holds the nucleus together. The strong nuclear force is caused by the force that hold quarks together.
The strong nuclear force and the weak nuclear force act within the nucleus to hold it together.
No, a force called the "strong nuclear force" holds the nucleus together.
It is the strong attraction, or strong nuclear force, that holds the nucleus together within the atom.
No, the strong nuclear force does.
That is the strong nuclear force.
An atomic nucleus is held together by what is known to physicists as the strong nuclear force.
You get nuclear energy from the binding energy (Strong Atomic Force) that holds the nucleus together.
"strong nuclear force"
2 of them : the strong and weak nuclear forces.
The residual effect of the strong force, also known as the nuclear force, is the force that holds a nucleus together. It is constantly opposed by the electromagnetic force repelling the protons in the nucleus.
