-- second weakest force
-- Greater role in taking things apart/decaying
-- Acts on subatomic level
-- Crucial role in star creation and creating elements]]> 2017-01-30 14:04:46 UTC https://padlet.com/kbaker16/h39wbatqs1aq/wish/150223870 Why is it "weak" sciancarelli https://padlet.com/kbaker16/h39wbatqs1aq/wish/150224069 -- Stronger than gravity but only effective at short distances
-- Big size of particles limits travel to short distances
-- Distance is about 0.1% of proton diameter]]> 2017-01-30 14:05:13 UTC https://padlet.com/kbaker16/h39wbatqs1aq/wish/150224069 The Real Definition kbaker16 https://padlet.com/kbaker16/h39wbatqs1aq/wish/150224121 - It is the action that is responsible for decay.
- It is responsible for transforming a neutron into a proton, and an electron into a neutrino.
- It also plays a large role in nuclear fission.]]> 2017-01-30 14:05:24 UTC https://padlet.com/kbaker16/h39wbatqs1aq/wish/150224121 Sources: sciancarelli https://padlet.com/kbaker16/h39wbatqs1aq/wish/150224768 http://home.fnal.gov/~cheung/rtes/RTESWeb/LQCD_site/pages/weakforce.htm

-plutonium and uranium could be handled without protection
-the sun would cease to exist because the sun gets its energy for its source of heat from protons and neutrons that are fused together using the weak force to form deuterium. ]]> 2017-01-30 14:08:45 UTC https://padlet.com/kbaker16/h39wbatqs1aq/wish/150225417 Beta Decay gnico https://padlet.com/kbaker16/h39wbatqs1aq/wish/150226839 -- Theory created by Enrico Fermi
-- Neutron in a nucleus changes into a proton and expels an electron
