Quarks carry spin 1/2. Two quarks (or actually a quark and an antiquark) bind together to make a meson (such as pion or kaon). Three quarks bind together to make a baryon (such as proton or neutron). Assume all quarks are in the ground state so the orbital angular momentum is zero).
(1) What spins are possible for mesons?
(2) What spins are possible for baryons?

Briefly discuss the essentials of the quark model for strongly interacting particles. In your discussion specify the baryon number, spin and charge of each of the quarks, explain what is meant by flavour, colour(-charge) and quark confinement. State the quark composition of mesons and hadrons, and explain why there are only quark- antiquark combinations, and combinations of three quarks and of three anti-quarks 4.
