The cadmium red line splits into three components separated by 120MHZ when the light source is placed in a magnetic field with a flux density equal to m_Tesla 8.6. The detected light is in a direction perpendicular to the direction of the magnetic field. Calculate the ratio of the charge of an electron to its mass (specific charge).
