Given, a current carrying wire of non-uniform cross-section, which of the following is constant throughout the length of wire?

A
Drift speed
B
Current and drift sped
Correct answer
C
Current only
D
Current, electric field and drift speed

Solution

Current only Current is every cross section is same irrespective of area of cross section

Hence, the correct answer is option: 'C'.
