34.3 Exercise 1

Avg difficulty 2.5

The characteristic length of entities in Superstring theory is approximately 10−35m\text{10}^{- \text{35}} \text{m}.

(a) Find the energy in GeV of a photon of this wavelength.

(b) Compare this with the average particle energy of 1019GeV\text{10}^{\text{19}} \text{GeV} needed for unification of forces.
