In the absence of applied potential, the electric current flowing through a metallic wire is zero because

Options:

Answer:
B
Solution:

If there is no potential difference through a metallic wire, the current is zero because the electrons drift in a random direction with a speed of the order of so that the net charge crossing a particular cross-section in a given time is zero.
