$A$ current of $10 \,A$ is maintained in a conductor of cross-section $1 \,cm^2$. If the number density of free electrons is $9 \times 10^{28} \,m^{-3}$,the drift velocity of free electrons is .......... $m/s$.

$A$ $1\,m$ long copper wire carries a current of $1\,A$. If the cross-section of the wire is $2.0\,mm^{2}$ and the resistivity of copper is $1.7 \times 10^{-8}\,\Omega\,m$,the force experienced by a moving electron in the wire is $x \times 10^{-23}\,N$. Find the value of $x$. (Charge on electron $= 1.6 \times 10^{-19}\,C$)
