Hello i am having a problem answering this question because of a lack of information in the book and from my professor. I cannot find an equation for photoelectric current. Here is the question: A 2.0-mW laser (530 nm wavelength) shines on a cesium photocathode (1.95 eV work function). Assume an efficiency of 10^-5 for producing photoelectrons (that is, one photoelectron produced for every 10^5 incident photons) and determine the photoelectric current.
