Which of the following statements concerning the nuclear force is false? O The nuclear force is attractive and not repulsive. O
Ulleksa [173]

Answer:

  • The nuclear force is attractive and not repulsive.
  • The nuclear force is very weak and much smaller in relative magnitude than the electrostatic and gravitational forces.

Explanation:

  • Nuclear force is the strongest existing force in the nature.
  • It has the shortest range.
  • Its main function is to hold the subatomic particles together in nature.
  • The nuclear force is created  by the exchange of pi mesons between the nucleons of an atom, but for this exchange to happen the particles must be close to one another of the order of few femtometer.
  • At about 1 femtometer the nuclear force is very strongly attractive in nature but at distance greater than 2.5 femtometer it fades away.
  • The force becomes repulsive in nature at distance less than 0.7 femtometer.
  • This force holds the likely charged protons together in the nucleus.

jeka57 [31]
A succession of single tones or pitches perceived as a unit is called a melody. It is a linear succesion of tones in music that is seen as one single entity. It is a combination of rhythm, pitch and tonal color. Melodies usually has one ormore motifs or phrases that are being repeated all throughout a composition. Melodies are characterized by the melodic motion it posses , the pitch, intervals between the pitches, continuity and pitch range. Due to the a wide range of melodies that can be made from tones, differet genres of music arise. Examples are Jazz, Rock music, Classical, pop, R&B and the like.

A crew team rows a boat at a rate of 20 km/h in still water. Beginning at time = 0 minutes, the team rows for 30 minutes up a ri
umka21 [38]
Since they are rowing against the current, their velocity realtive to the groud is 20-1.5 = 18.5km/h
So the distance travelled is 18.5km/h*0.5h = 9.25km
Going back with the current their ground realative velocity is 20+1.5 = 21.5km/h so the time it takes them to return 9.25 km is 9.25km/(21.5km/h) = 0.43h ~= 26 min
