current-electricity Question 34

Question: Q. 12. (i) Deduce the relation between current I flowing through a conductor and drift velocity vd of the electrons.

(ii) Figure shows a plot of current ’ I ’ flowing through the cross-section of a wire versus the time ’ t ‘. Use the plot to find the charge flowing in 10 s through the wire.

Show Answer

Solution:

Ans. (i) According to the figure,

Δx=vdΔt

Hence, amount of charge crossing area Antime Δt

(ii) Charge flowing =IΔt

= area under the curve  =[12×5×5+5(105)]C =37.5C
