A constant voltage is applied across a wire of non-uniform area of cross-section. Which of the followings quantity is independent of the cross-section?
- A Drift speed
- B Current density
- C Drift speed and free electron density
- D Free electron density and the charge crossing per unit time.
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(D) Free electron density and the charge crossing per unit time.
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
The charge crossing per unit time (current \(I\) ) must remain constant throughout the wire to satisfy the law of conservation of charge. Free electron density ( \(n\) ) is an intrinsic property of the material itself and does not change based on the wire's shape or thickness.…
