Textbook Question
Textbook QuestionSuppose a scientist repeats the Millikan oil-drop experiment but reports the charges on the drops using an unusual (and imaginary) unit called the warmomb (wa). The scientist obtains the following data for four of the drops: Droplet Calculated Charge (wa) A 3.84 * 10-8 B 4.80 * 10-8 C 2.88 * 10-8 D 8.64 * 10-8 (b) From these data, what is the best choice for the charge of the electron in warmombs?
