Let's say that you are given a magnetic field
B = 0.00109[Tesla].
You also have an
average V / d2 = 25989[V/m2];
what is the value for e / m ?
This question has given very less details about the situation, I'm assuming standard situation where an electron starts from rest and passes through potential difference and enter into a magnetic field, In this case
When electron passes through potential difference, then using energy conservation:
dKE = dPE
(1/2)*m*v^2 = e*V
v = speed of electron when it enters into magnetic field
V = potential difference
v = sqrt (2*e*V/m)
Now when it enters into magnetic field then it will move in circular motion due to magnetic force on it, So
Fc = Fm
m*v^2/d = e*v*B
v = e*d*B/m
So from both equations:
sqrt (2*eV/m) = e*d*B/m
square on both sides
2*e*V/m = e^2*d^2*B^2/m^2
e/m = 2*V/(B^2*d^2)
Given that B = 0.00109 T
V/d^2 = 25989 V/m^2
So,
e/m = 2*25989/(0.00109^2)
e/m = 4.37*10^10 C/kg
where C/kg is units of e/m
