    Two copper wires of equal length but different cross-sectional areas carry the same current. Which of the following statements is true regarding the drift velocities of electrons in the two wires?

    A

    The drift velocity is the same in both wires.

    B

    The drift velocity is higher in the wire with the smaller cross-sectional area.

    C

    The drift velocity is higher in the wire with the larger cross-sectional area.

    D

    The drift velocity is zero in both wires since the wires are of the same material.
