Charge to Mass Ratio
Data Analysis
- Plot your precision current and radius measurements but choose x- and y-axis variables so that your data would be well-fit by a linear trend. (HINT: you’ll have to square some variables).
- Use the slope of your linear trend to determine
for the electron and its uncertainty, and compare it to the CODATA value of −1.75882000838 × 1011 C/kg. - Send your precision measurement of the charge to mass ratio to Dr. FitzGreen. Preferably via Teams message.
