This problem uses the relationships among current I, current density J, and drift speed vd. We are given the total of electrons that pass through the wire in t = 3s and the area A, so we use the following equation to to find vd, from J and the known electron density n, so:
<span>The current I is any motion of charge from one region to another, so this is given by:
</span>
The magnitude of the current density is:
Being:
<span>
Finally, for the drift velocity magnitude vd, we find:
</span>
Notice: The current I is very high for this wire. The given values of the variables are a little bit odd
