The value of e me can be obtained by using a specially designed vacuum tube The figure contains a heated filament F and an anode A which is maintained at a positive potential relative to the filament by a battery of known voltage V Electrons get emitted from the heated filament and are accelerated towards the anode which has a small hole in the centre for the electrons to pass through into a region of constant magnetic field B which points into the plain of the paper The electrons then move in a semicircle of diameter d hitting the detector cathode as shown Prove that me 8V B d B F d
