NEET Physics: Current Electricity — MCQ Test 21

Q6. A copper wire of length \( 2 \, \text{m} \) and cross-sectional area \( 2 \times 10^{-6} \, \text{m}^2 \) carries a current of \( 2 \, \text{A} \). If the number density of free electrons in copper is \( 8.5 \times 10^{28} \, \text{m}^{-3} \) and \( e = 1.6 \times 10^{-19} \, \text{C} \), what is the drift speed of the electrons?

Q7. A \( 7 \, \Omega \) resistor carries a current of \( 2 \, \text{A} \) for \( 25 \, \text{s} \). What is the energy dissipated?

Q8. Why does the resistivity of an insulator decrease dramatically when impurities are added?

Q9. A copper wire carries \( 4 \, \text{A} \) with a drift speed of \( 1.0 \times 10^{-4} \, \text{m/s} \). If \( n = 8.5 \times 10^{28} \, \text{m}^{-3} \) and \( e = 1.6 \times 10^{-19} \, \text{C} \), what is the cross-sectional area?

Q10. A conductor of length \( 1 \, \text{m} \) and cross-sectional area \( 1 \times 10^{-6} \, \text{m}^2 \) has a resistance of \( 2 \, \Omega \). What is the resistivity of the material?
