Drift velocity vd varies with the intensity of electric field as per the relation
or (Since V = El)
In a conductor 4 coulombs of charge flows for 2 seconds. The value of electric current will be :
When a piece of aluminum wire of finite length is drawn through a series of dies to reduce its diameter to half its original value, its resistance will become :
Through a semiconductor, an electric current is due to drift off:
In semiconductors charge carries are free electrons and holes.
A metallic block has no potential difference applied across it, then the mean velocity of free electron is (T = absolute temperature of the block) :
In the absence of external electric field mean speed of free electron (Vrms) is given by
But the average velocity is zero.
The specific resistance of all metals is most affected by :
With rise in temperature specific resistance increases
The positive temperature coefficient of resistance is for :
For metallic conductors, temperature co-efficient of resistance is positive.
The electric intensity E, current density j and specific resistance k are related to each other by the relation :
Specific resistance
The resistance of a wire of uniform diameter d and length L is R. The resistance of another wire of the same material but diameter 2d and length 4L will be :
⇒
⇒ R2 = R1 = R.
There is a current of 1.344 amp in a copper wire whose area of cross-section normal to the length of the wire is 1 mm2. If the number of free electrons per cm3 is 8.4 × 1022, then the drift velocity would be :
