The d meson, a combination of a charm quark and up anti-quark (cu), can decay to k-mesons and pi-mesons in several different channels. three possibilities are where a k+ meson is composed of us, a k-meson is composed of us, a π+ posed of ud, and a π (a) draw the leading order feynman diagrams for each of the above decays. [10 points] (b) based on the quark flavors present in the initial state and the final state, rank these decay channels from highest branching fraction to lowest branching fraction. explain your answer. [5 points] (c) in a general two-body decay, particle a, at rest, decays into particles b and c (a→b+c). find the energy and the magnitude of the momentum of particles b and c. express your answer in terms of the particle masses (ma, mg, and mc and the speed of light (c) [25 points]

Imagine you are riding on a yacht in the ocean and traveling at 20 mph. you then hit a golf ball at 100 mph from the deck of the yacht. you see the ball move away from you at 100mph, while a person standing on a near by beach would observe your golf ball traveling at 120 mph (20 mph + 100 mph). now imagine you are aboard the hermes spacecraft traveling at 0.1c (1/10 the speed of light) past mars and shine a laser from the front of the ship. you would see the light traveling at c (the speed of light) away from your ship. according to einstein’s special relativity, how fast will a person on mars observe the light to be traveling? a) 0.1c (1/10 the speed of light) b) c (the speed of light) c)1.1c (c+0.1c)
