The charge of an electron is -1.602 10 -19 C. How many electrons must be

Question:

The charge of an electron is -1.602 × 10-19 C. How many electrons must be ejected from the metal each second to produce an electric current of 1.0 mA (1 A = 1 C/s)? How many photons must be absorbed each second to produce this number of photoelectrons, assuming that each photon causes an electron to be ejected?
