When a long straight uniform rod is connected across an ideal cell, the drift velocity of electrons in it is v . If a uniform hole is made along the axis of the rod and the same battery is used, then the drift velocity of electrons becomes
Options
- Av
- B>v
- C< v
- Dzero
Correct answer
A. v
Step-by-step solution
The drift velocity, aligned & v_a= 1 n e A = V n e A ( l= V R ) & v_d= V l A n e A ( R= l A ) & v_d= V l n e aligned As drift velocity is independent of cross-sectional area (A) so no change in drift velocity.
