Electron Ch arg e-to-Mass R a ti o El e c t ri c a l S y m b o l s • Use caution when working with voltages above 30 V AC rms, 42 V peak, or 60 V DC. Such voltages pose a shock hazard.
SE-9629 Electron Charge - to - Mass R at io The e/m apparatus also has deflection plates that can be used to demonstrate the effect of an electric field on the electron beam. This can be used as a confirmation of the negative charge of the electron, and also to demonstrate how an oscilloscope works. A unique feature of the e/m tube is that the socket rotates, allowing the electron beam to be oriented at any angle (from ±30 degrees) with respect to the magnetic field from the Helmholtz coils.
