The gap between two plane plates of a capacitor equal to d is filled with a gas.

Question:

The gap between two plane plates of a capacitor equal to d is filled with a gas. One of the plates emits v0 electrons per second which, moving in an electric field, ionize gas molecules; this way each electron produces a new electrons (and ions) along a unit length of its path. Find the electronic current at the opposite plate, neglecting the ionization of gas molecules by formed ions.
