minus-squareGork@lemm.eelinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up7arrow-down1·9 months agoDiameter of a hydrogen atom is all well and good, but how many digits of pi will we need to be accurate to a Planck Length?
minus-squarenova_ad_vitum@lemmy.calinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up3·9 months agoHonestly probably not that many more. My guess since I’m too lazy to do the math is less than 100.
minus-squareMalgas@beehaw.orglinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up5arrow-down1·9 months agoThe width of a hydrogen atom is 3.1*10^24 Planck lengths. So, yeah, 65 digits of pi ought to do it.
