Question : 2
Total: 27
How does the mobility of electrons in a conductor change, if the potential difference applied across the conductor is doubled, keeping the length and temperature of the conductor constant?
Solution:  
Electron mobility is given by
u=
vd
E
=
vd
Vl

Here E = magnitude of electric field applied vd= drift velocity, V= p.d., l= length
So, u
1
V

Hence, for the constant length and temperature of the conductor, if the potential difference is doubled, the mobility will be halved.
