Leptons can interact by which of the following forces?
A)strong nuclear force,weak nuclear force,electromagnetic force,gravitation
B)strong nuclear force,weak nuclear force,electromagnetic force
C)weak nuclear force,electromagnetic force,gravitation
D)strong nuclear force,weak nuclear force
E)strong nuclear force,electromagnetic force,gravitation

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Leptons are elementary particles that do not experience the strong nuclear force. Therefore, option A and B can be eliminated. Leptons can interact via the weak nuclear force (responsible for radioactive decay), electromagnetic force (responsible for interactions with charged particles), and gravitation. Therefore, option E can also be eliminated. The correct answer is option C.
