A currrent of 5A is passing through a metallic wire of cross sectional area `14xx 10^(-6) m^2` . If the density of the charge carries in the wire is `5 xx 10^(26)//m^3`, find the drift speed of the electrons (charge carries).

To find the drift speed of electrons in the metallic wire, we can use the formula that relates current (I), charge density (n), charge of an electron (e), cross-sectional area (A), and drift velocity (v_d): \[ I = n \cdot e \cdot A \cdot v_d \] Where: - \( I \) = current (in Amperes) - \( n \) = charge carrier density (in \( m^{-3} \)) - \( e \) = charge of an electron (approximately \( 1.6 \times 10^{-19} \) Coulombs) ...
