Question

Which best describes the weak nuclear force? It is weaker than the gravitational force, with a greater range than the weak nuclear force. It is stronger than the electromagnetic force, with a smaller range than the gravitational force. It is weaker than the strong nuclear force, with a greater range than the gravitational force. It is weaker than the strong nuclear force, with a smaller range than the electromagnetic force.

Answer 1

It is weaker than the strong nuclear force, with a smaller range than the electromagnetic force.

Answer 2

Weak nuclear force is weaker than the strong nuclear force with a smaller range than the electromagnetic force.

It acts between fermions with spin 1/2 basically quarks and leptons. It has a range of 10⁻¹⁸ meters.

Option 1 is incorrect. It is stronger than the gravitational force.

Option 2 is incorrect. It is weaker than the electromagnetic force.

Option 3 is incorrect. It has a smaller range than the strong nuclear force.
