Q: Suppose leptons are created in a reaction. Does this imply the weak force is acting? (for example,…

A: Yes, the lepton creation in a reaction denotes action of weak force. The weak nuclear force causes…

Q: Which of these are not fundamental particles, but are composites of two or three quarks held…

A:

Q: The only combination of quark colors that produces a white baryon is RGB. Identify all the color…

A: Colour quarks are fundamental particles. The colours assigned to quarks have three values namely…

Q: Explain how conservation of baryon number is responsible for conservation of total atomic mass…

A:

Q: Give three (3) combinations of quarks (not antiquarks!) that will give baryons with the following…

A:

Q: Use the conservation laws to fill in the missing numbers or particle symbols indicated by the dots…

A: In any nuclear reaction, the mass number (A) and the atomic number (Z) always remains conserved.

Q: Find the number of electrons, and of each species of quark, in 1 L of water.

A: The total number of molecules in water,

Q: Why can't an up quark turn into a charm quark?

A: Answer:   Introduction:   In the subject of nuclear physics, the elements in the periodic table,…
