BROVANA Â® (arformoterol tartrate) Inhalation Solution is a long-acting beta 2-adrenergic agonist (LABA) indicated for the long-term, twice-daily (morning and evening) maintenance treatment of bronchoconstriction in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), including chronic bronchitis and/or emphysema.
The oil drop experiment was performed by Robert A. Millikan and Harvey Fletcher in 1909 to measure the elementary electric charge (the charge of the electron). The experiment entailed observing tiny electrically charged droplets of oil located between two parallel metal surfaces, forming the plates of a capacitor.
Since the electric field was known, the charge on the oil drops could be determined when the drops were held at equilibrium. The value for the charge was calculated for many droplets. The values were multiples of the value of a charge of a single electron.
