Define the terms (i) drift velocity, (ii) relaxation time.

A conductor of length L is connected to a dc source of emf ε. If this conductor is replaced by another conductor of same material and same area of cross-section but of length 3L, how will the drift velocity change?


i) Drift velocity: The electrons drift towards the direction of positive potential, whenever a potential difference is applied across the conductor. The small average velocity of free electrons along the direction of positive potential is called the drift velocity.

Drift velocity is denoted by vd.

ii) Relaxation time: The time for which an electron moves freely between two successive collisions of electron with lattice ions/atoms is called the relaxation time.

 

Drift velocity is given by, 



where L is the length of the conductor,

 is the emf of the DC source,

L is the length of the conductor.

When, the conductor is replaced by another conductor of length 3L, drift- velocity will become one-third because both of them are inversely proportional to each other.
