Problem

A potential difference of 1.0 V is applied across a conductor of length 5.0 m and area of cross-section 1.0 mm21.0 \text{ mm}^2. When current of 4.25 A is passed through the conductor, calculate (i) the drift speed and (ii) relaxation time, of electrons. (Given number density of electrons in the conductor, n=8.5×1028 m−3n = 8.5 \times 10^{28} \text{ m}^{-3} ). a. the drift speed b. relaxation time, of electrons
