A) the electrons remain stationary
B) the electrons are drifted in random direction with a speed of the order of \[{{10}^{-2}}cm/s\]
C) the electrons move in random direction with a speed of the order close to that of velocity of light
D) electrons and ions move in opposite direction
Correct Answer: C
Solution :
At room temperature, the free electrons in a conductor move randomly with speed of the order of l05 m/s. Since, the motion of the electrons is random there is no net charge flow in any direction.
