Protons: The Shape-Shifting Particles Inside Every Atom

Protons are similar to peanuts, rugby balls, bagels, and spheres of the same magnitude. Protons come in all different shapes and sizes, with their appearance changing based on the speed of smaller particles within them: The sub atomic particles are called as quarks.

Protons are similar to peanuts, rugby balls, bagels, and spheres of the same magnitude. Protons come in all different shapes and sizes, with their appearance changing based on the speed of smaller particles within them: The sub atomic particles are called as quarks.

So, protons are kinda like shape-shifters, looking like peanuts, rugby balls, bagels, or spheres depending on how the quarks inside them are zooming around—crazy how these tiny particles are so dynamic!
