A currrent of 5A is passing through a metallic wire of cross sectional area 14xx 10^(-6) m^2 . If the density of the charge carries in the wire is 5 xx 10^(26)//m^3, find the drift speed of the electrons (charge carries).

Answer»

Solution :`I= 5 A , A = 14xx10^(-6) m^2`
density of electron `=5 XX 10^(26)//m^3`
CHARGE of electron `e= 1.6xx10^(-19) C`.
DRIFT speed `v_d= i/("neA")`
`=(5)/(5XX10^(26) xx 1.6 xx 10^(-19( xx 14 xx 10^(-6))`
`=(10^(-1))/(1.6xx 14) = 4.46xx10^(-3) ` m/s
