A copper wire has a circular cross section with a radius of 1.00 mm. (a) If the wire carries a current of 2.80 A, find the drift
speed of the electrons in the wire. (Assume the density of charge carriers (electrons) in a copper wire is n = 8.46 1028 electrons/m3.) 2.1e-6 Incorrect: Your answer is incorrect. Your response differs significantly from the correct answer. Rework your solution from the beginning and check each step carefully. m/s (b) All other things being equal, what happens to the drift speed in wires made of metal having a larger number of conduction electrons per atom than copper? Explain
