Question

Two weirs each of radius cross section r but of different materials are connected to gather end to end (in series). If the densities of charge carries in the two wires are in the ratio 1: 4, the drift velocity of electrons in the two wires will in the ratio : 

Options

A.1 : 2
B.2 : 1
C.4 : 1
D.1 : 4

Solution

j → Current density        n → Current density
j = -nevd            vd1 =
vd2 = ⇒ n = 4n1
= 4 : 1
