$A$ copper wire has a square cross-section,$2.0 \, mm$ on a side. It carries a current of $8 \, A$ and the density of free electrons is $8 \times 10^{28} \, m^{-3}$. The drift speed of electrons is equal to

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:

$A$ silver wire of length $3 \,m$ and of cross-sectional area $6.14 \times 10^{-6} \,m^2$ carries a current of $6 \,A$. The atomic weight and density of silver are $108 \,g/mol$ and $10500 \,kg/m^3$,respectively. $A$ silver atom contributes one free electron for conduction. The Avogadro number is $6.023 \times 10^{23} /mol$. The drift velocity of electrons in silver is close to:

Charge passing through a conductor of cross-section $0.3 \, m^2$ is given by $q = (3t^2 + 5t + 2) \, C$ where '$t$' is in seconds. The drift velocity at $t = 2 \, s$ is (Concentration of electrons in the conductor $= 2 \times 10^{25} \, m^{-3}$)
