Q1

In a uniform straight wire, conduction electrons move along +x direction.
Let \(\vec{E}\) and \(\vec{j}\) be the electric field and current density in the wire, respectively. Then :

a

\(\overrightarrow{\mathrm{E}}\) and \(\overrightarrow{\mathrm{j}}\) both are along +x direction.

b

\(\quad \vec{E}\) and \(\vec{j}\) both are along \(-x\) direction.

c

\(\overrightarrow{\mathrm{E}}\) is along +x direction, but \(\overrightarrow{\mathrm{j}}\) is along \(-x\) direction.

d

\(\quad \vec{E}\) is along \(-x\) direction, but \(\vec{j}\) is along \(+x\) direction.
