Reason (R): Nuclear force does not follow inverse square law.
Solution:
Assertion (A) is true; nuclear force is short-range, while gravitational and electric forces are long-range.
Reason (R) is true; nuclear force has a complex dependence, not \(1/r^2\). (R) correctly explains (A) as the absence of inverse square law behavior is characteristic of short-range forces.
