Millikan's oil drop experiment used to measure the elementary charge by introducing a tiny negatively charged droplet of mineral oil between the two horizontally parallel charged plates. An oil droplet with a mass of 1.63310¹⁴ is in equilibrium in Millikan's oil drop experiment. The voltage between the plates is 5000 V, and the distance between them is 2.0 cm. Calculate the number of excess electrons on the droplet.
