Across a metallic conductor of non-uniform cross section a constant potential difference is applied. The quantity which remains constant along the conductor is
A current density
B current
C drift velocity
D electric field

Detailed Solution

Current density, drift velocity and electric field all depend on the area of cross-section of the conductor.
Only the current remains the same at every cross-section of a conductor of non-uniform area.
