  • question_answer
      Directions: In the following questions, a statement of Assertion (A) is followed by a statement of Reason (R). Mark the correct choice as: Assertion (A): The current flowing through a conductor is directly proportional to the drift velocity. Reason (R): As the drift velocity increases the current flowing through the conductor decreases.

    A) Both Assertion (A) and Reason (R) are true and Reason (R) is the correct explanation of Assertion (A)        

    B) Both Assertion (A) and Reason (R) are true but Reason (R) is not the correct explanation of Assertion (A)

    C) Assertion (A) is true but Reason (R) is false             

    D) Assertion (A) is false and Reason (R) is also false

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    (c) Consider a conductor of length I and area of cross-section A. Time taken by the free electrons to cross the conductor, \[t=l/{{v}_{d}}\]. Hence, current, \[l=\frac{q}{t}=\frac{Al\times ne}{l/{{v}_{d}}}\] Or         \[l=Ane{{v}_{d}}\] Or         \[l\propto {{v}_{d}}\] Thus current is directly proportional to drift velocity.
