and have therefore
Using this corrected form of Stokes’s Law to combine with (9) ([p. 20]), we should obviously get the charge
in just the form in which it is given in (13), save that wherever a velocity appears in (13) we should now have to insert in place of this velocity
. And since the velocity of the drop appears in the ³⁄₂ power in (13), if we denote now by e the absolute value of the electron and by
as heretofore, the apparent value obtained from the assumption of Stokes’s Law, that is, from the use of (13), we obtain at once
