How does t=1 second relate to the Planck length?

In summary, the conversation discusses how an electron and the Earth attract each other according to certain formulas, resulting in the Earth moving towards the electron by a very small distance. However, this distance is much smaller than the Planck length, which is considered to be the smallest measurement of length with any meaning. The conversation also mentions that 't' was taken to be equal to 1 second in this calculation.

I have calculated that an electron attracts the Earth according to F=GmM/r^2 formula just as well the Earth attracts it with a minuscule value and that yields to the acceleration of Earth towards the electron and again according to x=1/2 a t^2 formula Earth's CM move to an electron 7,48.10^-54 meters. But that is much smaller than Planck length.
I thought anything smaller than Planck length is meaningless.
"This is the ‘quantum of length’, the smallest measurement of length with any meaning."

How come?

What did you take 't' as?

also... smallest measurement of length with any meaning does not mean 'quantum of length'.

What is the concept of "electron attracts the earth"?

The concept of "electron attracts the earth" refers to the phenomenon where the negatively charged electrons in an atom are attracted to the positively charged protons in the earth's nucleus. This attraction is a fundamental force in nature known as the electromagnetic force.

How does the electron attract the earth?

The electron attracts the earth through the electromagnetic force, which is one of the four fundamental forces in nature. This force is caused by the interaction between positively and negatively charged particles, such as the electrons in an atom and the protons in the earth's nucleus.

What is the importance of the electron attracting the earth?

The electron attracting the earth is essential for maintaining the balance of charge in the earth's atmosphere and surface. Without this attraction, the earth's electromagnetic field would not exist, which protects the planet from harmful solar radiation and cosmic particles. Additionally, the electron attraction plays a crucial role in many natural processes, such as lightning and chemical reactions.

Can the electron attract the earth be measured?

Yes, the electron attraction can be measured using various scientific instruments and techniques. For example, the strength of the earth's electromagnetic field can be measured using a magnetometer, which detects changes in the magnetic field caused by the movement of charged particles. Additionally, the effects of electron attraction can be observed and measured in chemical reactions and electrical conductivity.

How does the electron attraction affect our daily lives?

The electron attraction affects our daily lives in many ways, from the basic functioning of electronics and electricity to the stability of our planet's atmosphere. Without the electron attraction, our electronic devices would not work, and we would not be able to generate or harness electricity. Additionally, the earth's electromagnetic field protects us from harmful radiation, making life on earth possible.
