Answer Key : (b) -

(b)

Drift velocity,

Where I is current, n the number of electrons, e the electron charge and A the area of cross-section of wire.

Number of electrons per unit volume

So, current in the wire

=0.8A



Next Question :

a)

Relaxation time increases

b)

Mass of electron increases

c)

Electron density decreases

d)

Relaxation time decreases
