A light source, emitting there wavelengths 500nm, 600nm and 700 nm, has a total power of `10^(-3) W` and a beam diameter `2xx10^(-3)m`. The density is distributed equally amongst the three wavelength. The beam shines normally on a metallic surface of area on `10^(-4) m^(2)` and having a work function of `1.9` eV. Assuming that each photon liberates an electron, calculate the charge emitted per unit area in one second.
