Assertion:  Unlike electric force and gravitational forces, nuclear force has limited range.

Reason:  Nuclear force do not obey inverse square law.

  • If both assertion and reason are true and reason is the correct explanation of assertion.

  • If both assertion and reason are true but reason is not the correct explanation of assertion.

  • If assertion is true but reason is false.

  • If both assertion and reason are false.

Solution

B.

If both assertion and reason are true but reason is not the correct explanation of assertion.

Gravitational force:- Weakest force, but infinite range ( not part of standard model)

Weak Nuclear Force:- Next weakest, but short range

Electromagnetic Force:- Stronger, with infinite range

Strong Nuclear force:- strongest, but short range
