Do you like mysteries? Well, guess what, so did the physicists of the past! One of the greatest mysteries of the early 20th century was figuring out the charge to mass ratio of the electron. Let's dive in!
🚀 Big Picture Idea: Understanding how charged particles, like electrons, behave in a magnetic field helps us determine their properties.
Real-World Example: It's like trying to walk in an empty hallway (easy-peasy) vs. a crowded one (bump, excuse me, bump!)
Fun Fact: This is similar to how neon lights work. Electrons excite neon atoms which then glow!
