    $\frac{ml}{ne^2 \tau A}$
  • B
    $\frac{m \tau^2 A}{ne^2 l}$
  • C

$A$ straight conductor of uniform area of cross-section carries a current $I$. If $s$ is the specific charge (charge-to-mass ratio) of the electron,what is the total momentum of all the electrons per unit length of the conductor due to their drift velocity?

There are $0.8 \times 10^{23}$ free electrons $/ cm^3$ in copper. If a $0.2 \, A$ current is flowing in a copper wire, then the drift velocity of electrons will be, given the cross-sectional area of the wire is $0.01 \, cm^2$.
