Current Electricity Charging Discharging Of Capacitors Question 681
Question: Drift velocity of electrons is due to
Options:
A) motion of conduction electrons due to random collisions.
B) motion of conduction electrons due to electric field $ \vec{E}. $
C) repulsion to the conduction electrons due to inner electrons of ions.
D) collision of conduction electrons with each other.
Show Answer
Answer:
Correct Answer: B
Solution:
[b] Motion of conduction electrons due to random collisions has no preferred direction and average to zero. Drift velocity is caused due to motion of conduction electrons due to applied electric field E.
