When a current flows in a conductor the order of magnitude?
Answers
Answer:
Explanation:
Electric current is defined as the rate at which charge flows through a surface (the cross section of a wire, for example). Despite referring to many different things, the word current is often used by itself instead of the longer, more formal "electric current".
The adjective "electrical" is implied by the context of the situation being described.
The phrase "current through a toaster" surely refers to the flow of electrons through the heating element and not the flow of slices of bread through the slots.
Explanation:
The current through a conductor is related to drift velocity
I = neAvd
Where,
I = Current through the conductor
n = Free electrons per unit volume
A = Area of cross-section
vd = drift velocity of electron
the order of the magnitude will depend upon the values of the quantities.
