An electric cell of emf $E$ is connected across a copper wire of diameter $d$ and length $l$. The drift velocity of electrons in the wire is $v_{d}$. If the length of the wire is changed to $2l$, the new drift velocity of electrons in the copper wire will be

  • A
    $v_{d}$
  • B
    $2v_{d}$
  • C
    $v_{d}/2$
  • D
    $v_{d}/4$
