    Planck's constant in planetary orbits

    The question is: If quantum mechanics were detectable in planetary orbits, how much larger than the currently accepted value would Plancks constant need to be? Relevant equations ΔxΔpx ≥ħ/2 p=mv Earth-Sun dist 1.496E11 Earth orbit speed 28,900ms^-1 Earth mass 5.972E24 kg The attempt at a...
