3real life applications of the Millikan Experiment or parallel plates.
What I meant in real-life applications is how Millikan's oil drop experiment is used today. Like in what sort of products do we use stuff that Millikan learned. For example a TV uses something simiar to parallel plates to direct electrons.- Matthew
