Vedclass · Answer

(D) The correct statement is $(d)$.The nuclear force is a short-range force,meaning it only acts effectively between neighboring nucleons.As the number of nucleons $(A)$ increases,the size of the nucleus increases.Since the nuclear force does not act over long distances,the overall binding effect per nucleon decreases as the nucleus becomes very large,making it less stable.Therefore,the nuclear force effectively becomes weak in terms of maintaining stability when the nucleus contains a very large number of nucleons.
