Fundamental forces

Fundamental forces

1. Weak force

   • It only happens when the space between particles is .1% of a protons diameter
   • It acts on quarks
     • Four types of quarks: Up,Down,(Small mass). Charm, Strange, Top, Bottom (Large mass)
       • Small mass
         • What most stuff is made of
           • Protons
             • 2 up and 1 down
           • Neutrons
             • 2 downs and 1 up
       • Changes the flavor
         • Changes the element
   • Its the second weakest force of the four
   • Exchange of force carriers
     • Z bossom: No charge
     • W bossom: charge

2. Strong force

   • Holds the nucleus together
   • Is the strongest force of the four
     • It has a strength of 1
   • Its the second shortest range
   • It makes the neutron and proton stay together
     • Protons and neutrons are made of:
       • Quarks
         • They are held together by the color force
           • They are convey by force carriers that are called Gluons

3. Electromagnetic force

   • Is the second strongest force
   • Keeps the atoms and the molecules together
   • The range of this force is infinite
   • It produces
     • Electricity, magnetism and light
   • Sometimes attracts and sometimes repels

4. Gravitational force

   • Has an infinite range
   • Its the weakest force
   • The force carrier is the gravitons
     • Its theoretical
     • Hasn't been found
   • The strength depends on the objects
