How much time will be taken by an electron to move distance I = 1km in a copper wire of cross section `A = 1mm^2` if it carries a current I = 4.5A?` |
|
Answer» Time taken by electron to travel in copper wire is `t = (i)/(v_d)` where `v_d = (J)/("ne")` or `t = (I)/(J//"ne") whre J = i//A` Hence, `t = ("ne"AI)/(i)` `=(10^(28)xx1.6xx10^(-19)xx10^3xx10^(-6))/(4.5) = 3xx10^6s` |
