Hi to all entire community,
I was reading the book of R.Feynmann: "Six easy pieces" when at certain point He started to consider the gravitational force ##F_{g}## and the electric force ##F_{e}## of a system composed by two electrons fixed at a certain distance (I think electrons are in the empty space). The interesting fact is that when you examine the ratio you find this pure number:
\frac{F_{g}}{\left|F_{e}\right|}\,=\,\frac{1}{4,17\cdot 10^{42}}
The questions for the discussion are: has this number some significant meaning? It is a constant number? There is some relationship between this number and the age of the universe ? or it is simply a number?
Ps. I know these questions are unanswered but if somebody has some news or some connection with similar problems
we can satisfy partially the curiosity...
Thanks,
Ssnow
