Question

In the following atomic model, where does the strong nuclear force happen?

A diagram of an atom has three rings, labeled from outside to inside A, B, and C. A and B each carry two electrons. Inside ring C are 4 protons and 5 neutrons.
outside A
between A and B
between B and C
inside C

GPT-5 mini · Answer

Inside C — the strong nuclear force acts inside the nucleus, binding the protons and neutrons together. It's a very short-range force (fm scale) that overcomes the protons' electric repulsion.
