Find the current through a resistance 2 ohm if the voltage across the resistance is 6 V.

Step 1: Given –

Resistance = 2 $\Omega$

Voltage = 6V

To find: Current, I = ?

Step 2: Calculating current

From Ohm’s law, we know that,

V = IR

I = V/R

I = 6/2

I = 3A

Therefore, the value of the current is 3A.

Consider a cylindrical conductor of length $l$ and area of cross-section $A$. Current $I$ is maintained in the conductor and electrons drift with velocity $\vec{v}_d$ ($|\vec{v}_d| = \frac{e|\vec{E}|}{m}\tau$), (where symbols have their usual meanings). Show that the conductivity $\sigma$ of the material of the conductor is given by
$$\sigma = \frac{ne^2}{m}\tau.$$
