A steady current flows in a metallic conductor of non-uniform cross section.Which of these quantities is constant along the conductor-
1)Current
2)Current density
3)Drift speed
4)Electric field
When a steady current flows in a metallic conductor of non-uniform cross-section, the current flowing through the conductor is constant. Current density, electric field, and drift speed are inversely proportional to the area of cross-section. Therefore, they are not constant.
