Problem

The mobility of conduction electrons in a certain metal is 4.5×10−3 m2 V−1 s−14.5\times10^{-3}\,\text{m}^{2}\,\text{V}^{-1}\,\text{s}^{-1}. If a uniform electric field of 0.10 V m−10.10\,\text{V m}^{-1} is applied, the drift velocity of the electrons is closest to (a) 4.5×10−2 m s−14.5\times10^{-2}\,\text{m s}^{-1} (b) 4.5×10−3 m s−14.5\times10^{-3}\,\text{m s}^{-1} (c) 4.5×10−4 m s−14.5\times10^{-4}\,\text{m s}^{-1} (d) 4.5×10−5 m s−14.5\times10^{-5}\,\text{m s}^{-1}
