Determination Of The Value Of "e": By Millikan's Method, Using Solid Spheres

By John Yiu-bong Lee

Determination Of The Value Of "e" By Millikan's Method, Using Solid Spheres meticulously details an experimental approach to determining the elementary electric charge, 'e', following the principles of Robert Millikan's oil drop experiment. This work presents a modification using solid spheres rather than oil droplets, offering a unique perspective on a foundational experiment in physics.

Authored by John Yiu-bong Lee, this study provides a detailed procedure, analysis, and results, making it a valuable resource for students, educators, and researchers interested in replicating or understanding the nuances of this pivotal experiment. It contributes to a deeper understanding of the methodology used to quantify one of the fundamental constants of nature.
