Quark Model of the Neutron. The neutron is a particle with zero charge. Nonetheless, it has a nonzero magnetic moment with z-component 9.66 × 10−27A • m2. This can be explained by the internal structure of the neutron. A substantial body of evidence indicates that a neutron is composed of three fundamental particles called quarks: an "up" (u) quark, of charge +2e/3, and two "down” (d) quarks, each of charge -e/3. The combination of the three quarks produces a net charge of

The spheres are 43.0 cm apart (center to center) and repel each other with an electrostatic force of F1 = 0.0720 N. A thin conducting wire connects the spheres, redistributing the charge on each sphere. When the wire is removed, the spheres still repel, but with a force of F2 0.100 N. The Coulomb force constant is k 1/(4r€0) = 8.99 x 10° N · m²/C². Using this information, find the initial charge on each sphere, q1 and q2, if q, is initially less than q2 . 91 = C 92 = C 10:07 AM 47°F * E 4) ENG 2/2/2022arrow_forward
