Following Four Basic Forces operate in all natural processes : Gravitation Forces Weak Force Electromagnetic Force Strong Forces 1. Gravitation Forces : It is the force of attraction between two masses. It is always attractive in nature; hence sometimes it is taken with negative sign. It is a long range force, i.e., it can extend up to infinity. It follows inverse square law i.e., F ∞ 1 / r2. It is assumed to be created by a particle called gravitation. It is central force and hence, it is conservative in nature. It is the weakest force. 2. Weak Force in Physics : It is the force associated with beta – decay in radioactivity. During beta – decay, the following reaction takes place. 0 n 1 ⇒ β – + 1 P 1 + γ Neutron Beta Particle or Electron Proton Antineutrino Since, neutrino is a chargeless – massless particle, therefore during beta – decay, the electron and antineutrino interact with each other through very weak forces. Moreover, the leptons interact with Leptons, Baryons or Me
