Title: atoms

why do people say atoms are the smallest thigs? what about protons and electrodes, the things that make up an atom, and what about the thing that makes up electrons, and what bout the thing that makes up what makes up electrons (and so on, and so on)

who says that?

PS protons and neutrons are made of quarks and gluons I believe, not sure about electrons

quarks are the curren smallest known particle in the world.

LoZfan03 - August 20, 2005 05:47 PM (GMT)
aren't gluons smaller?

Míxtil_<3_fish! - August 21, 2005 06:27 PM (GMT)
i dont think so...

Stop making things up. I don't believe your lies, the smallest things are in fact dust specks. I can't see anything smaller, nothing else exists that is smaller.

i think mr. bucket's brain melted.

LoZfan03 - August 23, 2005 08:01 PM (GMT)
we can only hope...

anyway, I saw picture a little while ago of the inside of a proton and it had 2 positive quark, one negative quark and lotsa little things in between labeled as gluons.

o_0 maybe gluons are a new discovery...myinfo is 4 years old...

from wikipedia

QUOTE
In particle physics, gluons mediate strong interactions of quarks in quantum chromodynamics. The first direct experimental evidence of gluons was found in the early 1980s when three-jet events were observed at the electron-positron collider called PETRA at DESY in Hamburg. Quantitative studies of deep inelastic scattering at the Stanford Linear Accelerator Center had established their existence a decade before that.

maybe its a liar...

LoZfan03 - August 24, 2005 08:54 PM (GMT)
could be, but I don't think so

aiscool - August 25, 2005 04:22 AM (GMT)
but what holds it all together?

LoZfan03 - August 25, 2005 03:12 PM (GMT)
gluons or course :P

yes, I know what you are driving at, but it is a bit off topic

aiscool - August 25, 2005 08:02 PM (GMT)
gluons are made of something right? ok, I will leave this topic....for now because I have not studdied beond protons and nutrons.

Severian - August 25, 2005 08:18 PM (GMT)
Hmm...I took high school chem, but quarks and stuff we kinda skipped over. We did some organic chem and stuff though.

LoZfan03 - August 25, 2005 09:01 PM (GMT)
to aiscool: stands to reason, but when you find out what, tell me.

aiscool - August 26, 2005 02:07 AM (GMT)
@LOZ: you know what I would say and where I was going....

little contest for everyone:

what is e=mc^2 used to calculate?

vashies - August 26, 2005 02:12 AM (GMT)
Energy? im not sure but iz it meanink energy=mass x capacity Squared??

not bad for 8th grade science eh?

GRADE A PHAILURE.

Lionheart - August 26, 2005 03:05 AM (GMT)
You do realize that anyone who doesn't know would just need to do a quick google search to find out -_-

Except of course Vashies....

OMFG. FAILURE. SECONDED.

no google search for me, the answer is:

energy = (mass)(speed of light)(speed of light) [for lack of a squared symbol]

used to calculate the energy given by atomic/neuclear bombs I think

I think that's the theory of relativity
Energy=Mass x something squared(I forgot)

Míxtil_<3_fish! - August 26, 2005 11:09 PM (GMT)
energy=mass X c (the speed of light) squared.

if you make a titchy peice of mass, say this smilie :lol: go at the speed of light you will get fuckloads of energy.

LoZfan03 - August 27, 2005 07:04 PM (GMT)
:P I said that first. well, the equation part anyway
