When current flows through a conductor, then the order of drift velocity of electrons will be

A

1010 m/sec10 ^ { 10 } \mathrm {~m} / \mathrm { sec }

B

102 cm/sec10 ^ { - 2 } \mathrm {~cm} / \mathrm { sec }

C

104 cm/sec10 ^ { 4 } \mathrm {~cm} / \mathrm { sec }

D

101 cm/sec10 ^ { - 1 } \mathrm {~cm} / \mathrm { sec }

Answer

102 cm/sec10 ^ { - 2 } \mathrm {~cm} / \mathrm { sec }

Explanation

Solution

Order of drift velocity

=104 m/sec=102 cm/sec= 10 ^ { - 4 } \mathrm {~m} / \mathrm { sec } = 10 ^ { - 2 } \mathrm {~cm} / \mathrm { sec }
