Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Which force binds the nucleus of atoms together?
A
gravitational force
B
electromagnetic force
C
strong nuclear force
D
weak nuclear force
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The strong force binds quarks together in clusters to make more-familiar subatomic particles, such as protons and neutrons. It also holds together the atomic nucleus and underlies interactions between all particles containing quarks. The strong force originates in a property known as colour.

Detailed explanation-2: -Atomic nuclei consist of electrically positive protons and electrically neutral neutrons. These are held together by the strongest known fundamental force, called the strong force.

Detailed explanation-3: -The nuclear force (or nucleon–nucleon interaction or residual strong force) is the force between two or more nucleons. It is responsible for binding of protons and neutrons into atomic nuclei. To a large extent, this force can be understood in terms of the exchange of virtual light mesons, such as the pions.

Detailed explanation-4: -The strong nuclear force is sometimes referred to as just the strong force or the strong interaction. This force is strong enough that it overcomes the repulsive force between the two positively charged protons, allowing protons and neutrons to stick together in an unimaginably small space.
