Faster than light by a long way

Click For Summary
SUMMARY

The discussion centers on a theoretical equation relating to the speed of a mini black hole formed from the mass and charge of a proton. By substituting known constants such as the gravitational constant (G = 6.6 x 10^-11), Coulomb constant (k = 9.9 x 10^-9), proton mass (M = 1.6 x 10^-27), electric charge (Q = 1.6 x 10^-19), and the speed of light (C = 3 x 10^8), the derived speed (v) reaches an astonishing value of 10^23 meters per second. This suggests a radical rethinking of particle physics and the potential for speeds exceeding light, although the necessity of nuclear power for achieving such speeds remains uncertain.

If you take the equation for the radius of the event horizon of a black hole and imagine that the mass of a proton is made from lots of tiny masses that form a mini black hole, and that the charge of the proton is made from mini charges that also form a black hole then:


G M/ 3 C^ 2 = K Q / 3 v ^ 2

putting in values for G the gravitational constant , 6.6 x 10^ -11, k the coulomb constant 9.9 x 10 ^ -9, M the mass = 1.6 x 10 ^ -27,
Q the electric charge = 1.6 x 10 ^ -19, C the speed of light = 3 x 10^8 and v is a new unknown speed, the value of v is 10^23 metres per second!

Whether or not you need nuclear power to get to this speed I couldn't say!

thats like saying if an Electron-volt was = to 1 x 10^603 that that would be really good :-/
