Is there a value for epsilon in the equation:

k=1/4pi-epsilon?

Spidey strikes again!
 
You're referring to "epsilon zero" which is approximately 8.854 e-12.
 
So I know that electrons are fundamental, there's no 'material' that makes them up, it's like talking about a colour itself rather than a car or a flower. Now protons and neutrons and quarks and whatever other stuff is there fundamentally, I want someone to kind of teach me these, I have a lot of questions that books might not give the answer in the way I understand. Thanks
