$A$ current of $5\; A$ is passing through a non-linear magnesium wire of cross-section $0.04\; m^2$. At every point,the direction of current density is at an angle of $60^{\circ}$ with the unit vector of the area of cross-section. The magnitude of the electric field at every point of the conductor is .... $V/m$ (Resistivity of magnesium is $\rho = 44 \times 10^{-8}\, \Omega m$).

An insulating pipe of cross-section area $A$ contains an electrolyte which has two types of ions with charges $-e$ and $+2e$. $A$ potential difference applied between the ends of the pipe results in the drifting of the two types of ions,having drift speeds $v$ (for $-e$ ion) and $v/4$ (for $+2e$ ion). Both ions have the same number density $n$. The current flowing through the pipe is:

There are $0.8 \times 10^{23}$ free electrons $/ cm^3$ in copper. If a $0.2 \, A$ current is flowing in a copper wire, then the drift velocity of electrons will be, given the cross-sectional area of the wire is $0.01 \, cm^2$.

$A$ metallic block has no potential difference applied across it. What is the mean velocity of free electrons in terms of $T$ (absolute temperature of the block)?
