    Which of the below paricles has the highest positive charge? 

    • Tau neutrino

    • Strange quark

    • Photon

    • Electron

    Correct Answer
    A. Strange quark
    Explanation
    The strange quark has the highest positive charge among the given particles. Quarks are elementary particles that make up protons and neutrons. The strange quark has a charge of +2/3, while the tau neutrino, photon, and electron have charges of 0, 0, and -1 respectively. Therefore, the strange quark has the highest positive charge.

    Which of the folowing particles doesn't fit into the current standard model of physics?

    • Gluon

    • Tau

    • Graviton

    • Strange quark

    Correct Answer
    A. Graviton
    Explanation
    The graviton is the only particle listed that does not fit into the current standard model of physics. The standard model describes the fundamental particles and forces of nature, but it does not include a particle for gravity. The graviton is a hypothetical particle that is predicted by theories of quantum gravity, which aim to unify gravity with the other fundamental forces. However, the graviton has not been observed or confirmed by experimental evidence, and its existence is still a subject of ongoing research and speculation.

    Which of the two neucleons has no antiparticle?

    • Proton

    • Neutron

    Correct Answer
    A. Neutron
    Explanation
    Neutrons have no antiparticles because they are composed of three quarks (two down quarks and one up quark) and have no net electric charge. Antiparticles are the counterparts of particles with opposite charge, but since neutrons have no charge, they do not have antiparticles. Protons, on the other hand, are composed of two up quarks and one down quark, resulting in a positive charge, and therefore have antiparticles called antiprotons.
