Solution
The correct option is
A
v
d
∝
E
Assume a conductor of
length
l
,
charge carrier density
n
,
drift velocity
v
d
,
cross sectional area
A
,
It is placed in an uniform electrical field (
E
)
current through the conductor (
i
)
=
n
×
l
×
A
×
q
t
where
q
is the charge of a carrier(electron) and
t
is the time taken by carrier to pass through conductor
⇒
v
d
=
l
t
⇒
i
=
n
×
v
d
×
A
×
q
.......(1)
so to obey ohm's law
i
=
V
R
.....(2)
R
=
ρ
×
l
A
......(3)
V
=
E
×
l
....(4)
substituting (2),(3),(4) in (1):
⇒
n

v
d
×
A
×
q
=
E
×
A
ρ
⇒
E
=

v
d
×
q
Thus
v
d
∝
E
. hence correct option is A
