Homework Statement



The Zeeman components of a 500 nm spectral line are 0.0116 nm apart when the magnetic field is 1.00 T.
Find the e/m ratio for the electron from these data

Homework Equations



Seperation of the Zeeman Components
frequency(v)=eb/4x3,14xm

The Attempt at a Solution


from here wavelength is equal = wavelenght^2 x frequency / 4x3.14xmxc

thank you very much

Maybe solve the formula for what you want - get it to say e/m = ...

I think the "frequency" in the formula is supposed to be the "change in frequency" caused by the magnetic field. So you have to take the difference between two frequencies.
 
thank you very much dephi51 but i couldn't shape the equations in my mind. can you solve ?
 

Thread 'Initial conditions for orbits around a wormhole'

Hi, I had an exam and I completely messed up a problem. Especially one part which was necessary for the rest of the problem. Basically, I have a wormhole metric: $$(ds)^2 = -(dt)^2 + (dr)^2 + (r^2 + b^2)( (d\theta)^2 + sin^2 \theta (d\phi)^2 )$$ Where ##b=1## with an orbit only in the equatorial plane. We also know from the question that the orbit must satisfy this relationship: $$\varepsilon = \frac{1}{2} (\frac{dr}{d\tau})^2 + V_{eff}(r)$$ Ultimately, I was tasked to find the initial...

Thread 'Help to convert units of a simple formula'

The value of H equals ## 10^{3}## in natural units, According to : https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Natural_units, ## t \sim 10^{-21} sec = 10^{21} Hz ##, and since ## \text{GeV} \sim 10^{24} \text{Hz } ##, ## GeV \sim 10^{24} \times 10^{-21} = 10^3 ## in natural units. So is this conversion correct? Also in the above formula, can I convert H to that natural units , since it’s a constant, while keeping k in Hz ?
