e/m LabEquipment
SetupFirst we connected the HP power supply to the Helmholtz coils on the Uchida apparatus with one of the BK multimeters in series. Next the other BK multimeter was connected to the voltmeter jacks on the Uchida apparatus. The Soar power supply was connected to the heater jacks on the Uchida. Finally, the Gelman was connected to the electrodes on the Uchida. We followed the procedure in Professor Gold's manual, which included letting the heater warm up for 2 minutes before applying voltage to the electrodes on the apparatus. To take data, we let either let the voltage of the electrodes or the current running through the coils be constant, while varying the other parameter. We measured the radius of the rings on the right and the left side using the built in ruler.
DataNote: At a current of -1.35A, maximum accelerating voltage is 320V, the minimum is 165V. At -1.05A, the maximum voltage is 200V and the minimum is 100V. 11/16/09 Voltage applied to heater jacks: 6.24 V Raw Data:{{#widget:Google Spreadsheet |
