**Planck Time:**
|
||||
|
||||
The Planck time denoted by $t_P$ is a unit of time theorized to be the smallest measurable time interval. It is expressed as:
|
||||
|
||||
$$t_P = \sqrt{\frac{\hbar G}{c^3}} \approx 5.39 \times 10^{-44} \text{ seconds}$$
|
||||
|
||||
* $\hbar$ (h-bar) represents the reduced Planck constant (approximately 1.054 x 10^-34 Joule-seconds).
|
||||
* $G$ represents the gravitational constant (approximately 6.674 x 10^-11 meters cubed per kilogram per second squared).
|
||||
* $c$ represents the speed of light in a vacuum (approximately 299,792,458 meters per second).
|
||||
|
||||
**Planck Length:**
|
||||
|
||||
The Planck length ($l_P$) is the distance light travels in a Planck time. It can be derived using:
|
||||
|
||||
$$l_P = c \times t_P \approx 1.616 \times 10^{-35} \text{ meters}$$
|
||||
|
||||
**Comparison with Nanosecond:**
|
||||
|
||||
A nanosecond (ns) is one billionth of a second (10^-9 seconds). The difference in scale between Planck time and nanoseconds can be shown as:
|
||||
|
||||
$$\frac{1 \text{ ns}}{t_P} \approx \frac{10^{-9} \text{ s}}{5.39 \times 10^{-44} \text{ s}} \approx 1.85 \times 10^{34}$$
|
||||
|
||||
This indicates that a nanosecond is roughly 1.85 x 10^34 times larger than a Planck time.
|
||||
|
||||
**Note:** The statement about counting Planck times exceeding the universe's age is a simplified explanation. While mathematically true, the vast difference in scales emphasizes the extreme smallness of the Planck time.
