When the current $i$ is flowing through a conductor,the drift velocity is $v$. If $2i$ current is flowed through the same metal but having double the area of cross-section,then the drift velocity will be

$A$ cylindrical conductor of length $2 \ m$ and area of cross-section $0.2 \ mm^{2}$ carries an electric current of $1.6 \ A$ when its ends are connected to a $2 \ V$ battery. Mobility of electrons in the conductor is $\alpha \times 10^{-3} \ m^{2}/V \cdot s$. The value of $\alpha$ is: (electron concentration $n = 5 \times 10^{28} \ m^{-3}$ and electron charge $e = 1.6 \times 10^{-19} \ C$)
