/sci/, I was wondering about the forces of nature.

Which one is the strongest and just how much stronger is it.

All I know is gravity is supposed to be the weakest but it seems to have the most impact over the universe.

>> No.1904546

the strong force that holds atoms together is the strongest known.

>> No.1904547

Jesus is the strongest force in the Universe.

>> No.1904548

either gravity or strong force

>gravity seems to have the most impact over the universe

LMAO, no just fucking no! Where are you getting such bullshit from?

The forces from least to greatestes are Gravity, Weak, EM, Strong. Weak is 10^25 times stronger then gravity, EM is 10^36 times stronger then gravity, and Strong is 10^38 times stronger then gravity.

Fuck this shit. Why is everyone today posting pics like this? First the puppy on girl, now this...

>> No.1904578

Gravity is the weakest, but given enough prep time...

Dragonforce is strongest force.

Why, of course gravity has the most impact on the universe on the cosmological scale. It is relatively weak, true, but it makes up for that by being only attractive and having infinite reach.

There's also the fact that we still don't really understand it.

the 4 forces all have different strengths depending on the size of the objects your working with. On the microscopic scale of atoms, the strong force dominates. on the macroscopic of planets, the electromagnetic, strong, and weak all cancel out and gravity is the only one left. of course there is the GUT energy, at which the weak, strong, and EM are unified into 1 massive force

LOL U PERVERT

IT'S OBVIOUSLY A BANANA AND A PEACH

There would be no gravity without the strong force

Yeah but gravity holds the solar system and galaxies together and even galaxy clusters and super clusters. Wtf do the other forces do?

>> No.1905072

>>1905052
Hold atoms together. Seems more vital to me.

>> No.1905112

>>1905052

Well, the electromagnetic force holds atoms in their atomic orbitals and the strong force holds together atomic nuclei. So, the strong force has to be ridiculously more powerful than the electromagnetic force as the electromagnetic force tries to drive the nuclei apart. The weak force is responsible for some radioactive decays and some particle decays.

Now, the reason that gravity appears more powerful than these is that, at least for the strong and the electromagnetic forces, is that it is only attractive. The electromagnetic force has 2 charges that occur in equal amounts in the universe and so it all net cancels. The strong force has three charges that can only exist in a neutral configuration and so also cancels itself out.

>>1905112
No. The strong force is only attractive and does NOT cancel itself out. That's why there are different sizes of atomic nuclei. However, it has limited effective range.
