Abstract
The objective of this experiment is to familiarize the student with the impulse theorem, electron dynamics, and magnetic field contours. He is challenged to obtain accurate as well as precise measurements with suboptimum apparatus through correct analysis. He also investigates the influence of various systematic errors using model calculations on a small computer. © 1972, American Association of Physics Teachers. All rights reserved.
