A) the free electrons are accelerated continuously from the lower potential end to the higher potential end of the conductor
B) the free electron are accelerated continuously from the higher potential end to the lower potential end of the conductor
C) the free electrons acquire a constant drift velocity from the lower potential end to the higher potential end of the conductor
D) the free electrons are set in motion from their position of rest
Correct Answer: C
Solution :
Current flows from high potential to low potential. \[\therefore \]The free electrons acquire a constant drift velocity from the lower potential end to the higher potential end of the conductor. (direction of electrons is opposite to that of current)
