A current of 5 ampere is passing through a metallic wire of cross-sectional area `4xx10^(-6) m^(2)`. If the density of the charge-carriers in the wire is `5xx10^(26) m^(-3)`, find the drift speed of the electrons.A. `1.5625xx10^(-2)m//s`B. `1.5625xx10^(-23)m//s`C. `1.5625xx10^(3)m//s`D. `1.5625xx10^(-4)m//s`

Answer» Correct Answer - A
`v_(d)=(I)/(n A e)`
`= (5)/(5 xx10^(26)xx4xx10^(-6)xx1.6xx10^(-19))`
`=1.5625xx10^(-2)m//s`
