Where:
V is the potential of the cathode
e is the charge of the electron
Hence Æ e
=
( E / B )2
m 2V
The value of e/m was found to be the same for all cathode
materials (i.e. all metals emit the same cathode)
It was found that the drop charges were all integer multiples e:
e = 1.6 ×10 −19 C
−31
Together with Thomson’s e/m values, we find: me = 9.11× 10 kg
Rutherford and the discovery of the nucleus
The discovery of charged particles like electrons emanating
from atoms, and the fact that atoms emitted em radiation,
strongly suggested that atoms were composed of charged
particles. However, atoms were electrically neutral overall
