उत्तर
`1/N sum_(i = 1)^N V_i = 0`
`a = (-eM)/m`
`V_i = v_i - (eE)/m t_1`
`= 0 -(eM)/m τ = - (eE)/m τ`
`I Delta t = + n e A |V_d | Delta t`
`|j| = ( "ne" ^2)/m τ |E|`

When electrons drift in a metal from lower to higher potential, does it mean that all the free electrons of the metal are moving in the same direction?
A conductor of length ‘l’ is connected to a dc source of potential ‘V’. If the length of the conductor is tripled by gradually stretching it, keeping ‘V’ constant, how will (i) drift speed of electrons and (ii) resistance of the conductor be affected? Justify your answer.
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.
