Electrons are accelerated through a relatively large voltage and directed onto a metal target, producing X-rays. cathode metal target How many electrons (N) strike the target if the total charge is 8 ??C ? (e = 1.6 * 10 -19 C) * The number of electrons N = x 10^13 electrons.

The charge of an electron is $-1.602 \times 10^{-19} \mathrm{C}$. How many electrons must be ejected from the metal each second to produce an electric current of $1.0 \mathrm{~mA}(1 \mathrm{~A}=1 \mathrm{C} / \mathrm{s}) ?$ How many photons must be absorbed each second to produce this number of photoelectrons, assuming that each photon causes an electron to be ejected?
The charge possessed by an electron is 1.6 X 10-19 coulombs. Find the number of electrons that will flow per second to constitute a current of 1 ampere.
