question_answer
In a wire of circular cross-section with radius r, free electrons travel with a drift velocity V when a current I flows through the wire. What is the current in another wire of half the radius and of the same material when the drift velocity is 2V [MP PET 1997]
A) 2I
B) I
C) \[I/2\]
D) \[I/4\]
Correct Answer:
C
Solution :
From \[{{v}_{d}}=\frac{i}{neA}\Rightarrow i\propto {{v}_{d}}A\Rightarrow i\propto {{v}_{d}}{{r}^{2}}\]
