In a current carrying metallic conductor, current density and drift velocity will be such that
View answer and explanation
Correct option: A
and will have opposite directions
Option A ( and will have opposite directions) is correct because in metallic conductors, the charge carriers are electrons (negative), so the current density and drift velocity are in opposite directions.
