The symbol G is used to represent
 a. the acceleration of gravity
  b. the universal gravitational constant
  c. grams
  d. gravity
  e. none of the above

Question 2

What helps explain the fact that neutrons rather than protons make the nucleus of a heavier element more stable?
 a. The gravitational force of the neutrons attracts all other nucleons, but a proton can also repel other nucleons with the same charge.
  b. The weak force in the nucleus of a heavy element is balanced by the presence of more neutrons.
  c. The strong force for between a neutron and another nucleon is much stronger than between a proton and a proton.
  d. The strong force exerted by both neutrons and protons acts between neighboring nucleons, while the electrostatic repulsion between protons has longer range.
  e. The strong force increases as the element gets heavier, which makes it harder for protons to join the nucleus.
