In Milikan's oil drop experiment, a charged drop falls with terminal velocity V. If an electric field E is applied in vertically upward direction then it starts moving in upward direction with terminal velocity 2V. If magnitude of electric field is decreased to `(E)/(2)`, then terminal velocity will become

Drift velocity in a metallic conductor: At room temperature there are large number of free electrons having zero average velocity, but when electric field is applied, the free electrons start moving in a direction opposite to the direction of the applied field with a velocity called drift velocity. The magnitude of electric field set up across the ends of the conductor is given by
