Since ${E_1}(10\,V) > {E_2}(4\,V)$
So current in the circuit will be clockwise.
Applying Kirchoff's voltage law
$ - \,1 \times i + 10 - 4 - 2 \times i - 3i = 0$ $ \Rightarrow $ $i = 1\,A$ $(a$ to $b$ via $e)$
Current $ = \frac{V}{R} = \frac{{10 - 4}}{6} = 1.0\,ampere$

There are $0.8 \times 10^{23}$ free electrons $/ cm^3$ in copper. If $0.2\, A $ current is flowing is copper wire, then the drift velocity of electrons will be, if the cross sectional area of wire is $0.01 \,cm^2$
Two wires of equal diameters, of resistivities ${\rho _1}$ and ${\rho _2}$ and lengths $l_1$ and $l_2$, respectively, are joined in series. The equivalent resistivity of the combination is
Two resistance wires on joining in parallel the resultant resistance is $\frac{6}{5}\,ohms$. One of the wire breaks, the effective resistance is $2\,ohms$. The resistance of the broken wire is ............ $ohm$
The electric current through a wire varies with time as $I=I_0+\beta t$. where $I_0=20 \mathrm{~A}$ and $\beta=3 \mathrm{~A} / \mathrm{s}$. The amount of electric charge crossed through a section of the wire in $20 \mathrm{~s}$ is :
