For instance, a particle floating at the free surface of water waves, experiences a net Stokes drift velocity in the direction of wave propagation.
32.
The electrons in a typical wire actually move at a drift velocity on the order of centimeters per hour ( much slower than a snail ).
33.
The conductivity of the Ge-detector influences the magnitude of the drift velocities and the angle between the electric field vector and the drift velocity.
34.
The conductivity of the Ge-detector influences the magnitude of the drift velocities and the angle between the electric field vector and the drift velocity.
35.
This is due to the fact that the speed of light in an optical medium is typically much faster than the drift velocity of electrons in semiconductors.
36.
The drop in drift velocity at high electric fields due to intervalley scattering is small in comparison to high saturation velocity that results from low optical phonon scattering.
37.
The average speed of the electrons ( the drift velocity ) is about a millimeter per second, depending on the thickness of the wire and other factors.
38.
For each position the values of the electrical potential, electric field and weighted field are calculated and the drift velocity matrices are calculated from the electric field matrix.
39.
The drift velocity then determines the electric current density and its relationship to " "'E " "'and is independent of the collisions.
40.
In order for a charged particle to follow a curved field line, it needs a drift velocity out of the plane of curvature to provide the necessary centripetal force.
