Planck Mass

The Planck mass is a fundamental physical constant in theoretical physics, representing a natural unit of mass based on fundamental constants: the speed of light, gravitational constant, and Planck’s constant.

Its value is approximately 2.18 × 10⁻⁸ kilograms (about 22 micrograms).

The Planck mass is significant in quantum gravity and string theory, marking a scale where quantum effects of gravity become strong and classical physics breaks down.

Summary:

• 
  

  Approximately 2.18 × 10⁻⁸ kg (22 micrograms)

  
  
• 
  

  Derived from fundamental physical constants

  
  
• 
  

  Important in quantum gravity and theoretical physics

Kilogram (kg)

The kilogram is the SI base unit of mass, representing the amount of matter in an object.

• 
  

  It is symbolized as kg.

  
  
• 
  

  Since 2019, the kilogram is defined by fixing the value of the Planck constant to exactly $6.62607015 \times 10^{-34}$ joule seconds, linking mass to fundamental physical constants.

  
  
• 
  

  Before this, it was defined by a physical platinum-iridium prototype.

  
  
• 
  

  It is the only SI base unit still using the prefix "kilo" in its name.

  
  

Key points:

• 
  

  1 kg is the base unit of mass in the metric system

  
  
• 
  

  Defined using the Planck constant for high precision

  
  
• 
  

  Widely used globally in science, industry, and everyday life

  
  

The kilogram ensures accurate and universal mass measurements across the world.
