Quark is smaller then electrons, protons and neutrons, correct?

Answer 1

Hi. Correct. But since the baryons : http://www.answers.com/main/ntquery?s=baryons&gwp=16 all contain three quarks, so you might have to reconsider the electron, which is much less massive.

Answer 2

An important property of quarks is called confinement, which states that individual quarks are not seen because they are always confined inside subatomic particles called hadrons (e.g., protons and neutrons); an exception is the top quark, which decays so quickly that it does not hadronize, and can therefore be observed more directly via its decay products. Confinement began as an experimental observation, and is expected to follow from the modern theory of strong interactions, called quantum chromodynamics (QCD). Although there is no mathematical derivation of confinement in QCD, it is easy to show using lattice gauge theory.

So yes being that they are fractional charges confined inside of protons, neutrons and electrons they are smaller.

Answer 3

Yes - and there are more than one type of quark. But quarks are thought to be the smallest particle at this point.

Answer 4

Correct.

Answer 5

Yes, and they're are 6 different types of quarks I believe. Go read up on String Theory, that **** will blow you away, and then confuse you, and then make you angry, then make you feel stupid for not understanding it....but for a few minutes you'll be like.....whoa

Answer 6

Yes and still a little bigger than President Bush's brain...haha

Answer 7

that is correct
