Best Answer

1 yoctometer = 1 x 10^-24 meter = 0.000 000 000 000 000 000 000 001 meter

To the extent that electrons and protons behave like little, hard billiard balls, the diameter of

an electron is in the neighborhood of 100 yoctometers, and of a proton, 100,000 yoctometers.

The diameter of a penny is 3/4 inch, 19.05 millimeters, 19,050,000,000,000,000,000,000 yoctometers.

There is nothing to "solve" here. The prefix "yocto" means 10 to the power -24. So, in this case, you get to the power -24 meters, i.e., one meter divided by 10 to the power 24.

How big is a yocto meter?

It is ten to the power of minus twenty four (10^-24, or 1 divided by 10^24) of a meter.. So basically you divide a meter of length so that you have a septillion (that is one (1) followed by 24 zeros (0s)) of equally long parts. (actually equally short parts) Then you take one part, and the length of that part is a yoctometer.

There is no such thing as smallest unit in the metric system. For example, the official prefix for the smallest unit is "yocto-", which is one septillionth (10^-24). But measurements can go on to 10^-11 yoctometres which is the Planck length, the smallest measurable distance.
