So, every second, there are about 100 trillion neutrinos and tens to hundreds of muons passing through your body per second, and maybe a tiny scattering of neutrons and other cosmic particles or debris from cosmic particles impacting the atmosphere.
Interesting read
So if they move at nearly the speed of light, let’s say 0.99997 c, that’s 2.99783 x 10^8 meters per second.
Assuming that you’re standing exactly at solar midnight, exactly on the opposite side of the planet as the sun, and all 100 trillion neutrinos are coming from the sun and through your 1.8 meter height, each neutrino will be in your body for 6 x 10^-9 seconds.
So at any given moment, there should be about 600,000 neutrinos in you.
I’m pretty sure all those assumptions are inaccurate, but that’s the number I got.
at what amounts do they start getting harmful? Also, how?
Well, one is harmful, if it hits your DNA and gives you cancer.
and yet no superpowers. what a gyp.
Forgot about the theoretical gravitons.
- And every one is named “Betty.”
More than yours!
(Seriously, I’m a big dude.)
