I had been asked this question during an online interview.

Answer 1

Right option is (c) The nuclear force is independent of charge

To explain: Nuclear force is independent of charge.  The nuclear force between two protons is the same as that between two neutrons or between a neutron and proton. This is known as charge independent character of nuclear force. Also, nuclear force is stronger than the electromagnetic and gravitational force.
