    Nuclear force exists between nucleons (protons and neutrons) of an atom. Between similarly charged protons, there exists an electrostatic force of repulsion. Similarly, there also exists a strong but short-ranged force of attraction called the nuclear force. From that, the correct answer among the choices is A.
