प्रश्न
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?

उत्तर
No, when electric field applied the electrons will have net drift from lower to higher field but locally electrons may collide with ions and may change its direction of motion.
