Which of the following is not made by quarks?

A Neutron
B Positron
C Proton
D \(\pi\)-meson

Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) Positron

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Positron is not made of quarks.

Apply the relevant identity from the chapter and substitute the values established in the previous step, keeping the original constraint in view.

Use the simplified expression to isolate the unknown, then plug the result back into the question setup to confirm the working is internally consistent.

Cross-check against a boundary or limiting case. Both the dimensional balance and the qualitative behaviour at the extreme should agree with the candidate answer.

Combine the steps above to identify the correct option. The remaining choices each fail at least one of the consistency, dimensional, or boundary checks.

Two thin biconvex lenses have focal lengths \(f_{1}\) and \(f_{2}\). A third thin biconcave lens has focal length of \(f_{3}\). If the two biconvex lenses are in contact, then the total power of the lenses is \(P_{1}\). If the first convex lens is in contact with the third lens, then the total power is \(P_{2}\). If the second lens is in contact with the third lens, the total power is \(P_{3}\), then
