If `g_(E)` and `g_(m)` are the acceleration due to gravity on the surface of the earth and the moon respespectively and if Millikan's oil drop expriment could be performed on the two surface one will find the ratio
`("Electronic charge on the moon")/("electronic charge on the earth")` to be .

A

1

B

zero

C

`g_(E)//g_(M)`

D

`g_(M)//g_(E)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

Electronic charge is independent from g, then the ratio will be equal for 1.
