Which describes the weak nuclear force only? Check all that apply. is attractive is repulsive has an infinite range has a very small range is stronger than the gravitational force is weaker than the electromagnetic force

is weaker than the electromagnetic force

Explanation:

The weak force or weak nuclear force acts between elementary particles.

Weak nuclear force is important in the reaction speed of some nuclear reactions that occur in stars. It is also present at the origin of volcanic explosions.

The weak force is a short-range force, less than a billionth of a millimeter: 10-13mm. At a greater distance, the intensity of this force is already negligible.

If the weak force had a value of 1,

the electromagnetic force would have a value of 1,000

and the strong force would be worth 100,000,000,000

Although it is vastly weaker than the other two nuclear forces, the weak force is important in that it enables the Sun and stars to produce light and energy.

The weak force causes a type of radioactive decay called "beta decay." An example of beta decay is the decay of the neutron when it becomes 1 proton + 1 electron + 1 neutrino

Small range

is stronger than the gravitational force is weaker than the electromagnetic force

Explanation:

Solution:-

- The weak force, also called the weak nuclear interaction, is responsible for particle decay. This is the literal change of one type of subatomic particle into another. So, for example, a neutrino that strays close to a neutron can turn the neutron into a proton while the neutrino becomes an electron.

- When subatomic particles such as protons, neutrons and electrons come within 10^-18 meters, or 0.1% of the diameter of a proton, of one another, they can exchange these bosons. As a result, the subatomic particles decay into new particles

- The weak force, or weak interaction, is stronger than gravity but wealer than electromagnetic, but it is only effective at very short distances.

- Neither attractive nor repulsive, it acts inside the individual nucleons and can occasionally lead to a neutron's transformation into a proton on (or vice versa), accompanied by a release of beta radiation.
