  4. The Millikan Oil-Drop Experiment

    This simulation is a simplified version of an experiment done by Robert Milliken in the early 1900s. Hoping to learn more about charge, Milliken sprayed slightly ionized oil droplets into an …

  5. Millikens Oil Drop Experiment

    The Millikens Oil Drop Experiment was an experiment performed by Robert A. Millikan and Harvey Fletcher in 1909 to measure the charge of an electron. This experiment proved to be very crucial in the physics community.

  6. Oil drop experiment

    Millikan and Fletcher's experiment involved measuring the force on oil droplets in a glass chamber sandwiched between two electrodes, one above and one below. With the electrical field calculated, they could measure the droplet's …
