ELECTRON DEFLECTION
Introduction:
A beam of moving electrons can be deflected in horizontal or vertical direction by the application of electric or magnetic field. In this experiment, first the deflection of the electron beam was measured systematically as a function of the voltage differences across the x-direction plates and then the y-directions plates by using a cathode ray tube. In the second part the deflection produced by applied magnetic field was measured and in the third part the Lorentz force magnetic and electric voltage was measured in order to prove the validity of Lorentz force. This experiment is based on the fact that a beam of particles with charge e and mass m, moving at speed u through a region with uniform electric field E and uniform magnetic field B experience a force and this force is given by:
F = eE + qv×B
The force in turn is......
