Current across wire

When the potential difference across a copper wire increases, the drift velocity of charge carriers __________. \text{\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_.}

increases remains the same gets reduced to zero decreases

I is equal to A n e (Vd) where Vd is drift vilocity..so when V increases I will increase which in turn increases Drift velocity Vd

Drift velocity = carrier mobility * electric field

Electric field = potential difference / length of conductor

Thus if potential difference increase, drift velocity increases
