What is its relation with relaxation time?
Advertisements
उत्तर
`mu=v_d/E`
Now, `v_d=(eEt)/m`
Where, t is the relaxation time
∴ `mu=(et)/m`

How does drift velocity of electrons in a metallic conductor vary with increase in temperature? Explain.
On the basis of electron drift, derive an expression for resistivity of a conductor in terms of number density of free electrons and relaxation time. On what factors does resistivity of a conductor depend?
Define relaxation time of the free electrons drifting in a conductor. How is it related to the drift velocity of free electrons? Use this relation to deduce the expression for the electrical resistivity of the material.
Consider a wire of length 4 m and cross-sectional area 1 mm2 carrying a current of 2 A. If each cubic metre of the material contains 1029 free electrons, find the average time taken by an electron to cross the length of the wire.

The relaxation time τ is nearly independent of applied E field whereas it changes significantly with temperature T. First fact is (in part) responsible for Ohm’s law whereas the second fact leads to variation of ρ with temperature. Elaborate why?
Define relaxation time.
Two conductors, made of the same material have equal lengths but different cross-sectional areas A1 and A2 (A1 > A2). They are connected in parallel across a cell. Show that the drift velocities of electrons in two conductors are equal.
