- The drift speed of charge carriers in a conductor carrying current / is ngA where n is the number of mobile charge carriers per unit volume, q is the magnitude of the charge on each carrier, and A is the cross-sectional area of the conductor. The transmission line has a diameter of 2.00 cm so that its radius is r= 1.00 cm = 1.0 x 10 m and so that its cross-sectional area is A = nr? - n(1.0 x 10-2 m)² = n x 10-4 m2. In metallic conductors, the mobile charge carriers are electrons, each with a charge of magnitude q- e. We are given the density n of free electrons in this copper material per unit volume. Thus, the drift speed of the electrons is V = ngA c) x 1028 m-1.60 x 10-19 C)(T x 10-4 m2) x 10 m/s.arrow_forwardIn electrical theory, Ohm’s law states that I = V/R , where I is the current in amperes, V is the electromotive force in volts, and R is the resistance in ohms.
