NEET Physics Current Flow MCQ Question
In a metallic conductor, under the effect of applied electric field, the free electrons of the conductor
drift from higher potential to lower potential
move in the curved paths from lower potential to higher potential
move with the uniform velocity throughout from lower potential to higher potential
move in the straight line paths in the same direction
Correct Answer
Detailed Explanation
Free electrons drift from higher to lower potential due to the applied electric field, causing current flow.
