== No. The quark is a fundamental particle, and it comes in 6 different forms. (A chart is posted by our friends at Wikipedia, and a link to that chart is provided below.) As it is a fundamental particle, there aren't "positives" or "negatives" inside a quark. We thought at one point that the quark was made up of point particles called partons, but that idea has been largely abandoned. We're still puzzling out the underlying nature of the quark. Work in the big colliders continues, and the blackboards and notepads of the research scientists who are pouring over the results are full of ideas. But nothing tenable has yet to be published. Links are provided to Wikipedia posts on the quark and related subjects. You'll find those links below.

What is antiquarks?
The antiparticle of a quark is called as an anti quark. Which has the same mass but other properties are opposite. Example - Their charge. From the family(group) of quark Up has +2/3 whereas anti-up has -2/3. Quark is a matter ( particle ) whereas an anti quark ( antiparticle ) is antimatter
Which combination of quarks can produce a neutral baryon?
Ans 1 Any with a combination of an up, charm, or top quark, and a combination of two down, strange, or bottom quarks. ([(+2)+(-1)+(-1)=(0)]). Ans 2 Two down quarks and an up quark. This combination is a neutron. A down quark has a charge of -1/3 and an up quark a charge of +2/3
What 2 types of particles exist within atomic nucleus?
It depends in where you want to end your search. The "larger" particles are protons and neutrons. These in turn are made up of quarks - Protons are made of two Up and one Down quark. The neutron is made of two Down and one Up quark. The difference is that Up quarks have a 2/3 positive charge and the Down has a 1/3 negative charge. The two types of quarks are your two basic particles. At the present time no proposal has been made for quark building blocks,
How many quarks are there in each nuetron?
A neutron has 3 valence quarks. An up quark, and two down quarks. An up quark has a charge of 2/3 and a down quark has a charge of -1/3.Since 2/3 - 1/3 - 1/3 = 0, neutrons have a neutral charge.Besides valence quarks, supposedly a hadron can contain an infinite sea of quarks that don't affect the properties of the hadron.
Do neutrons have net charge?
No. Neutrons do not have a net charge. They are comprised of two down quarks, each with a charge of -1/3 and one up quark, with a charge of +2/3. These cancel out, for a net charge of zero.Constrast this with the proton, with one down quark, -1/3, and two up quarks, +2/3. for a net charge of +1.
What does a positive times a positive times a negative equal?
A negative times a positive is a negative.
Can 2 0 positives have a negative?
Yes if both are +- then there is a 25% chance of a -- child
If you add three positives and 1 negative then your final answer is which positive or negative?
Well, it would depend on what number the positives and negatives are.For example:1+1+2+(-4)= -1or4+7+3+(-2)= 12
If protons are positive and are made of two up quarks and one down quark why do neutrons have no charge but are made of two down quarks and one up quark?
The reason that protons are positive and neutrons have no charge is owed to the fact that quarks, which make up these particles, do not have integral charge. The charge of an up quark is +2/3, and the charge of a down quark is -1/3. When the charges of the quarks are added for the particles, we get the following: Proton = up quark + up quark + down quark = 2/3 + 2/3 - 1/3 = 4/3 - 1/3 = 3/3 = +1 Neutron = up quark + down quark + down quark = 2/3 - 1/3 - 1/3 = 2/3 - 2/3 = 0 (zero)
How do you multiply with negative numbers?
If you are multiplying a negative number times a negative number, you multiply regularly but the answer in negative. If you are multipling 2 negatives, you multiply it regularly, again, but the answer is positive, and if u multiply 2 positives, obviously its a positive.
What can protons and neutrons be subdivided into by colliding them?
A proton can be divided into 2 Ups and a Down quark, and a neutron into 2 Downs and an Up quark. In general the quark is the elementary particle from which protons and neutron are formed.
Negative plus a positive?
Negatives and Positives Positive + Positive = Positive Negative + Negative = Positive Negative + Positive = Negative Positive + Negative = Negative
What is an up quark?
The up quark is one of the two most stable types of quarks in the universe. It is one seen very often. For instance, a proton is composed of two up quarks and a down quark. It has a charge of +2/3.
What happens when you subtract two positives numbers?
It depends. It can wind up being a positive or negative number. For instance: 8-2=6 but 2-8=-6 (negative 6)
What did the Europeans bring to AmericasList 2 positive and 2 negative contributions?
2 positives would be: Technology and tools. 2 negatives would be: Guns and Whiskey
Does two positive equal a negative?
Multiplying and dividing two negatives does equal a positive. Adding two negatives equals a negative, but subtracting two negatives may or may not equal a positive. Ex. -2 * -4 = 8 -10/-2 = 5 -2+ -4 = -6 -4- -2 = -2 -2- -4 = 2
When you have 2 positives do you add or subtract?
When you have 2 positives you add them.
