Nuclear forces between proton proton proton neutron

Answers

Answered by Damon
Well as a first cut protons have positive charge and like charges repel. This overwhelms any gravitational force between them.
Neutrons have no charge so no electrical force between them or between them and protons. The gravitational force is tiny.
