Hi,
I don't know very much about the weak force, but gravity, EM and the strong force all seem to apply an actual F = ma type of force (at least, I think the strong force does). But my limited knowledge of the weak force is just that it is involved in radioactive decay. Maybe this is why some people are reluctant to call it the weak force (and use "interaction" instead)? I'm just wondering in what sense the weak force is a force.
Thanks
