Suppose that an electron is a small spherical shell of mass


Suppose that an electron is a small spherical shell of mass m with a charge e spread over its surface. Show that the ratio of the magnetic moment to the angular momentum of such an electron would be e/2m, whether the electron is (a) moving in a circular orbit, or (b) spinning about a diameter. (experimental values for the above ratio are e/2m and e/m, respectively.)
