NEET2023PhysicsCurrent ElectricityActual
A copper wire of radius 1 ~mm contains 10²² free electrons per cubic metre. The drift velocity for free electrons when 10 ~A current flows through the wire will be (Given, charge on electron =1.6 10⁻¹⁹ C )
Options
- A6.25 m s ⁻¹
- B6.25 10^5 m s ⁻¹
- C6.25 10^4 m s ⁻¹
- D6.25 10^3 ~m ~s ⁻¹
Correct answer
D. 6.25 10^3 ~m ~s ⁻¹
Step-by-step solution
V_d= i n e A aligned & V_d= 10 10²² 1.6 10⁻¹⁹ (10⁻³ )^2 & V_d= 10 1.6 10⁻³ & = 6.25 10^3 ~m / s aligned
