Trying to understand the Strong force relative to Gravity...

If gravity is strength 1 then EM is 10^39... correct? what is the strong force compared to to those two?

gravitys stength is an inverse square of the distance.

what is the equivelent notation for the strength of the STRONG FORCE?

wasnt sure if there was a shnazzy relationship to the area of effect were gravity has a relative fall-off of 10^39 while the EM has a fall-off of 1 and etc for the strong force.

 

Hope i explained the well enough... I wasnt sure how to phrase that to search the forum.

You need to be a bit careful though, since the strength of all the forces changes with energy. For example, the strong force exhibits asymptotic freedom - it falls to zero in the limit of the energy going to infinity.
