Description
|
| Learn
physics the way your professors did!! This classic 1959 film, presented
in crisp 16-mm B&W, demonstrates an experiment to quickly calculate
the mass of an electron by using a cathode ray tube, some wire, a battery,
and a magnet. Astronomy lab instructor, Tom Kasper, presents this interesting,
and often amusing, retrospective. You can follow along and do the equations
yourself, too! Don't forget your grease pencil and slide rule! |
