Answer:

b. Gravity is the weaker force; it is related to mass.

Explanation:

Gravity is the force of gravitational attraction of earth on all objects near its surface

This force on all objects depends on the mass of the objects

This force is given by

$F = \frac{GMm}{r^2}$

$F = mg$

so here it is a weak force as it depends on mass and acceleration due to gravity while strong nuclear force is independent of mass and it only depends on the distance between the nuclei.

So as we will change the distance between the nuclei the force between them will change

So here correct answer is

b. Gravity is the weaker force; it is related to mass.
