Mobility of a charge carrier is defined as the drift velocity per unit what?
AApplied electric field
BCurrent in the wire
CWire cross-section
DRise in temperature
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: A. Applied electric field
Mobility is the magnitude of drift velocity divided by the applied electric field, so it measures how readily carriers move.
