Student Values Lookup

This page gives students the exact values needed for the introductory lessons. The QMU quantities are whole unit values: \({m_e}\) is one electron mass, \({\lambda_C}\) is one Compton length, \({F_q}\) is one quantum frequency, and \({m_a}\) is one maximum Aether mass.

How to use this page

The full QMU explorer organizes units such as mass, length, charge, and frequency. This student lookup page is different: it lists the specific named quantities and SI bridge values used in the student lessons and calculator activities.

Lesson values

Electron Mass

Symbol: \({m_e}\)

QMU meaning: One electron mass.

SI bridge value: \(9.109\times10^{-31}\,\mathrm{kg}\)

Lesson use: Small mass endpoint in the Planck mass investigation.

Compton Length

Symbol: \({\lambda_C}\)

QMU meaning: One electron Compton length.

SI bridge value: \(2.426\times10^{-12}\,\mathrm{m}\)

Lesson use: Quantum length used to connect electron mass, photon speed, and frequency.

Quantum Frequency

Symbol: \({F_q}\)

QMU meaning: One quantum frequency.

SI bridge value: \(1.236\times10^{20}\,\mathrm{s^{-1}}\)

Lesson use: Frequency used with Compton length to produce photon speed.

Photon Speed

Symbol: \(c\)

QMU meaning: One photon speed.

SI bridge value: \(2.998\times10^{8}\,\mathrm{m/s}\)

Lesson use: Speed bridge in light, gravity, and constant relations.

Maximum Aether Mass

Symbol: \({m_a}\)

QMU meaning: One maximum Aether mass.

SI bridge value: \(3.268\times10^{15}\,\mathrm{kg}\)

Lesson use: Large mass endpoint in the Planck mass investigation.

Planck Mass

Symbol: \({m_P}\)

QMU meaning: Geometric mean between electron mass and maximum Aether mass in this student activity.

SI bridge value: \(5.457\times10^{-8}\,\mathrm{kg}\)

Lesson use: Comparison value for \(m_P=\sqrt{m_e m_a}\).

Gravitational Constant

Symbol: \(G\)

QMU meaning: Gravity coupling expressed in the student gravity lesson through \(G={\lambda_C}c^2/{m_a}\).

SI bridge value: \(6.674\times10^{-11}\,\mathrm{m^3\,kg^{-1}\,s^{-2}}\)

Lesson use: Shows how gravity can be related to quantum length, photon speed squared, and maximum Aether mass.
