Current Electricity Notes

What is electron drift velocity ? Electron Drift Velocity : Suppose that in a conductor, the number of free electrons available per m3 of the conductor material is n and let their axial drift velocity be ν metres/second. In time dt, distance travelled would be ν × dt. If A is area of cross-section of … Read more
