B How Does Changing Gravity and Speed of Light Affect the Planck Scale?

AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers on the relationship between gravity, the speed of light, and the Planck scale. Participants question whether an increase in gravity would result in a larger Planck length and whether changes in the speed of light would have a similar effect. There is a request for a Java-based website that allows users to manipulate these parameters and observe their impact on the Planck scale. The conversation also touches on the need to examine the relevant formulas for clarity on how changes in G (gravitational constant) and c (speed of light) affect the Planck length. Overall, the thread explores theoretical implications and seeks practical tools for visualization.

If gravity becomes stronger. would the Planck length becomes longer or bigger? Would speed of light c also have the same effect of changing the Planck length size?

Would anyone know any java website that can make you adjust the strength of gravity and c and see how big or small the Planck scale can become?

Did you check the formula for the Planck length? If G increases, does it increase or decrease?
Same for the speed of light.

There are no limits.
 

Thread 'The Physics of unloading sand from a barge'

I think it's easist first to watch a short vidio clip I find these videos very relaxing to watch .. I got to thinking is this being done in the most efficient way? The sand has to be suspended in the water to move it to the outlet ... The faster the water , the more turbulance and the sand stays suspended, so it seems to me the rule of thumb is the hose be aimed towards the outlet at all times .. Many times the workers hit the sand directly which will greatly reduce the water...
