The Drift Velocity is the flow velocity that a particle, such as an electron, attains in a material due to an electric field. The following equation is used to calculate the drift velocity: `mu=I/(nQA)`, where:
- `mu` = drift velocity
- `I` = flow of current
- `n`= number of electrons
- `Q` = charge of electrons
- `A` = cross section of area of wire
