उत्तर
We know that drift velocity,
`V_d=I/(nAq)`
where I is the current, n is charge density, q is charge of electron and A is cross-section area.
`V_d=1.5/(9xx10^28xx1.0xx10^(-7)xx1.6xx10^(-19))`
`V_d=10.4xx10^(-4) "m/s"`

Estimate the average drift speed of conduction electrons in a copper wire of cross-sectional area 2.5 × 10−7 m2 carrying a current of 1.8 A. Assume the density of conduction electrons to be 9 × 1028 m−3.
When a current is established in a wire, the free electrons drift in the direction opposite to the current. Does the number of free electrons in the wire continuously decrease?
Electrons are emitted by a hot filament and are accelerated by an electric field, as shown in the figure. The two stops at the left ensure that the electron beam has a uniform cross-section.
A current of 1.0 A exists in a copper wire of cross-section 1.0 mm2. Assuming one free electron per atom, calculate the drift speed of the free electrons in the wire. The density of copper is 9000 kg m–3.
