How did Millikan's oil drop experiment lead to quantum nature of electric charge?​

Physics
1 answer:
ahrayia [7]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Millikan's oil drop experiment proved that electric charge is quantized.

At the time, there was still great debate whether electric charge was continuous or not.

Millikan believed that there was a smallest unit of charge, and he set out to prove it.

This was the big result of the oil drop experiment.

That he could also determine the charge of the electron was a secondary benefit.

This was probably one of the most significant experiments ever carried out.

An object is placed at O ona number line. It moves 3 units to the right, then 4 units to the left, and then 6 units to
kvv77 [185]

Answer:

You have a displacement of 5 units to the right.

Explanation:

First you go three to the right which lands on the 3 mark. Then you move it 4 to the left which substracts 4, landing the object at -1. Finally you move 6 to the right, and you finish at marker 5. Since displacement is not total distance but just final distance from the start point directly to end point, it is only a displacement of 5.
