Which of the follwing characteristies of electrons determines the current in a conductor?A. Drift velocity alongB. Thermal velocity aloneC. Both drift velocity and tehrmal velocityD. Neither drift nor thermal velocity.

Answer» Correct Answer - A
The relationship between current and drift speed is given by
`I=n e" "Av_(d)`
Here, I is the current and `v_(d)` is the drift velocity
So, `I propv_(d)`
Thus, only drift velocity determines the current in a conductor.
