A conducting ball oscillates between two charged plates connected to a sensitive ammeter. For each complete oscillation of the ball moving between the plates, a charge of 8.5 × 10⁻¹⁰ C is transferred from one plate to the other. The frequency of oscillation is 4.0 Hz.

Calculate the current shown on the sensitive ammeter.
