A beam of light of wavelength 400 nm and power 1.55 mW is directed at the cathode of a photoelectric cell (given \(h c=1240 \mathrm{eV}-n \mathrm{~m}_{4} \mathrm{e}=1.6 \times 10^{-19} \mathrm{c}\)). If only 10% of the incident photons effectively produce photoelectrons, find the current due to the electrons.
  1. 22 mA
  2. 70 mA
  3. 40 mA
  4. 50 mA

Answer

(A) 22 mA
