Paragraph:
In a thin rectangular metallic strip a constant current flows along the positive -direction, as shown in the figure. The length, width and thickness of the strip are and , respectively.
A uniform magnetic field is applied on the strip along the positive -direction. Due to this, the charge carriers experience a net deflection along the -direction. This results in accumulation of charge carriers on the surface and appearance of equal and opposite charges on the face opposite to . A potential difference along the -direction is thus developed. Charge accumulation continues until the magnetic force is balanced by the electric force. The current is assumed to be uniformly distributed on the cross section of the strip and carried by electrons.


Question: Consider two different metallic strips ( and ) of same dimensions (length , width and thickness ) with carrier densities and , respectively. Strip is placed in magnetic field and strip is placed in magnetic field , both along positive -directions. Then and are the potential differences developed between and in strips and , respectively. Assuming that the current is the same for both the strips, the correct option(s) is(are)
