Question
A neutron exerts a force on a proton which is:
- Gravitational.
- Electromagnetic.
- Nuclear.
- Weak.
✓
Answer
- Gravitational
- Nuclear
Explanation:
A neutron exerts both the gravitational and nuclear forces on a proton.
The gravitational force can be seen between a neutron and a proton. However, its strength is negligible. The nuclear force is exerted only if the interacting particles are neutrons or protons or both. A neutron cannot exert electromagnetic force, because it is a neutral particle.

Assertion : Two electric bulbs of 50 and 100 W are given. When connected in series 50 W bulb glows more but when connected parallel 100 W bulb glows more.
Reason : In series combination, power is directly proportional to the resistance of circuit. But in parallel combination, power is inversely proportional to the resistance of the circuit.
