Two wires A and B of the same metal have the same across sectional area and have their lengths in the ratio 2:1 What will be the ratio of currents flowing through them respectively, when the same potential difference is applied across each of them?

If a current passes through a metal conducting wire of area of cross section A, the drift velocity of free electrons inside the metal is v_d=1/( n e A) , where the amount of electric charge of an electron =e and the number of free electrons per unit volume of the metal=n. The applied electric field on the wire is E=V/l , where a potential difference V exists between two points, l apart, along the length of the wire. IF R is the resistance of the wire between those two points, then the resistivity of its material is rho=(RA)/l .Besides the mobility (mu) of the free electrons inside a wire is defined as their drift velocity for a unit applied electric field. Two copper wires have both lengths and radii in the ratio 1:2 if the ratio between the electric currents flowing through them is also 1:2 , what would be the ratio between the drift velocities of free electrons?

A uniform magnetic field of 100 G (IG=10^(-4)T) exists in a region of length about 10 cm and area of cross- section about 10^(-3)m^(2) . The maximum current carrying capacity of a given coil of wire is 15A and the number of turns per unit length that can be wound round a core is at most 1000 turns m^(-1) . How would you utils the coil to design a solenoid for the required purpose ? Assume the core is not ferromagnetic.

Two metallic conductors A and B of same lengths have resistivities of 1.6xx10^(-8) Omegam and 3.2xx10^(-8) Omega m respectively. These two conductors are separately connected to the same potential difference. What should be the ratio of their cross sections in order to have the same current flowing through each of them?
