Question : 2 of 16
Marks: +1, -0
Two conductors A and B of the same material have their lengths in the ratio 1 :2 and radii in the ratio 2 :3. If they are connected in parallel across a battery, the ratio VAVBof the drift velocities of electrons in them will be
Solution:  
The formula for drift velocity is:
Vd=InAq
Where A is the cross-sectional area. Since conductors are made of the same material, n and q are constant.
Given:
• Lengths :lA:lB=1:2
• Radii :rA:rB=2:3
R=ρlAI=VAρl
VAρl=neAvdVd=Vneρl
Here voltage v and n, e, ρ are all same for both conductor so, Vd1lVAVB=21
