Determining the Velocity of Light with the Zeeman Effect Experiment
Zeeman Effect was discovered by P.Zeeman and helped him win the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1902. Generally this effect is used to measure the charge-mass ratio of an electron. In this paper we found that when considering Zeeman Effect conversely, if taking the charge-mass ratio as a given value, we can deduce the velocity of light in vacuum theoretically based on the formula of Zeeman Effect. Starting from this deduction we can redesign the experiment of Zeeman Effect and find a new method to measure the velocity of light in vacuum.
