Planck Length


Another fundamental physical constant named after Max Planck, it is thought to be the smallest possible length, at an incredibly small 1.616 x 10-35 meters. Its true meaning remains unknown, but there is an obvious relationship between gravity and the Planck length as found in gravity equations, and also a relationship with the electron’s classical radius.

Derivation – Planck Length

It is found in classical terms as a ratio of the electron’s classical radius and the square of two coupling constants for the electron: 1) the gravitational coupling constant and 2) the strong force coupling constant (the fine structure).  As expressed mathematically in the classical equation, if the relative strength of gravity was equal to the relative strength of the strong force (when compared to the electric force), the ratio would be one and Planck length would be equal to the electron’s radius.  The weaker gravity is compared to the electric force, the shorter the distance for Planck length. The wave constant form is derived from the classical form.
