MCQ
The short range attractive nuclear forces that are responsible for the binding of nucleons in a nucleus are supposed to be caused by the role played by the particles called:
  • A
    Positron
  • B
    m-Meson
  • C
    K-Meson
  • D
    $\pi$- Meson

Answer

  1. $\pi$- Meson

Explanation:

The nuclear force between a neutron and proton is the result of the exchange of charged mesons ($\pi^+\pi^-$) between them.
