Explain Drift velocity. |
|
Answer» In physics a drift velocity is the average velocity attained by charged PARTICLES, such as electrons, in a material due to an electric field. In general, an electron in a CONDUCTOR will propagate randomly at the Fermi velocity, resulting in an average velocity of zero. Applying an electric field adds to this RANDOM MOTION a small net flow in one DIRECTION; this is the drift. |
