Electron Drift Velocity Calculator Input Values |
Potential difference (ΔV) V [Volt] |
Mean free time between two collisions (τ) s [second] |
Length of wire (d) m [metre] |
Charge of electron (e) C [Coulomb] |
Mass of electron (me) kg [kilogram] |
Please note that the formula for each calculation along with detailed calculations are available below. As you enter the specific factors of each electron drift velocity calculation, the Electron Drift Velocity Calculator will automatically calculate the results and update the Physics formula elements with each element of the electron drift velocity calculation. You can then email or print this electron drift velocity calculation as required for later use.
