Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The quark structure uus consists of two up quarks (u) and one strange quark (s). The charge of an up quark (u) is +2/3e, and the charge of a strange quark (s) is -1/3e. Adding these together, the total charge is (2/3 + 2/3 - 1/3)e = 1e.

In Terms of E, the Charge on a Particle That
