Example 3.1: (a) Estimate the average drift speed of conduction electrons in a copper wire of cross-sectional area 1.0 × 10–7 m2 carrying a current of 1.5 A. Assume that each copper atom contributes roughly one conduction electron. The density of copper is 9.0 × 103 kg/m3, and its atomic mass is 63.5 u. (b) Compare the drift speed obtained above with, (i) thermal speeds of copper atoms at ordinary temperatures, (ii) speed of propagation of electric field along the conductor which causes the drift motion.
Simple Explanation: Estimate v_d for I=1.5A, A=10^{-7}m².
Solution (a): The direction of drift velocity of conduction electrons is opposite to the electric field direction, i.e., electrons drift in the direction of increasing potential. The drift speed vd is given by Eq. (3.18) vd = (I/neA). Now, e = 1.6 × 10–19 C, A = 1.0 × 10–7m2, I = 1.5 A. The density of conduction electrons, n is equal to the number of atoms per cubic metre (assuming one conduction electron per Cu atom as is reasonable from its valence electron count of one). A cubic metre of copper has a mass of 9.0 × 103 kg. Since 6.0 × 1023 copper atoms have a mass of 63.5 g, n = (6.0 × 1023 × 9.0 × 103) / 63.5 = 8.5 × 1028 m–3 which gives, vd = 1.5 / (8.5 × 1028 × 1.6 × 10–19 × 1.0 × 10–7) = 1.1 × 10–3 m s–1 = 1.1 mm s–1
Solution (b) (i): At a temperature T, the thermal speed* of a copper atom of mass M is obtained from [<(1/2) M v2 > = (3/2) kBT ] and is thus typically of the order of √(kB T / M), where kB is the Boltzmann constant. For copper at 300 K, this is about 2 × 102 m/s. This figure indicates the random vibrational speeds of copper atoms in a conductor. Note that the drift speed of electrons is much smaller, about 10–5 times the typical thermal speed at ordinary temperatures.
Solution (b) (ii): An electric field travelling along the conductor has a speed of an electromagnetic wave, namely equal to 3.0 × 108 m s–1 (You will learn about this in Chapter 8). The drift speed is, in comparison, extremely small; smaller by a factor of 10–11. * See Eq. (12.23) of Chapter 12 from Class XI book.
Simple Way: Drift tiny vs others.
Example 3.2: (a) In Example 3.1, the electron drift speed is estimated to be only a few mm s–1 for currents in the range of a few amperes? How then is current established almost the instant a circuit is closed? (b) The electron drift arises due to the force experienced by electrons in the electric field inside the conductor. But force should cause acceleration. Why then do the electrons acquire a steady average drift speed? (c) If the electron drift speed is so small, and the electron’s charge is small, how can we still obtain large amounts of current in a conductor? (d) When electrons drift in a metal from lower to higher potential, does it mean that all the ‘free’ electrons of the metal are moving in the same direction? (e) Are the paths of electrons straight lines between successive collisions (with the positive ions of the metal) in the (i) absence of electric field, (ii) presence of electric field?
Simple Explanation: Why instant current? Acceleration? Large I despite small v_d? Directions? Paths?
Solution (a): Electric field is established throughout the circuit, almost instantly (with the speed of light) causing at every point a local electron drift. Establishment of a current does not have to wait for electrons from one end of the conductor travelling to the other end. However, it does take a little while for the current to reach its steady value.
Solution (b): Each ‘free’ electron does accelerate, increasing its drift speed until it collides with a positive ion of the metal. It loses its drift speed after collision but starts to accelerate and increases its drift speed again only to suffer a collision again and so on. On the average, therefore, electrons acquire only a drift speed.
Solution (c): Simple, because the electron number density is enormous, ~1029 m–3.
Solution (d): By no means. The drift velocity is superposed over the large random velocities of electrons.
Solution (e): In the absence of electric field, the paths are straight lines; in the presence of electric field, the paths are, in general, curved.
Simple Way: Micro vs macro views.
Tip: All textbook examples covered with full details from PDF.
