Analysis:

Drift velocity is directly proportional to the electric field, i.e.

Vd ∝ E

Vd = μE

The proportionality constant 'μ' is called as the mobility and is given by:

\(\mu = \frac{{{V_d}}}{E} = \frac{{Drift\;velocity}}{{electric\;field}}\)

Substituting the respective units, we get:

\( \mu= \;\frac{{m/s}}{{V/m}}\)

∴ SI unit of μ is \(\frac{{{m^2}}}{{V - sec}}\) or m2V-1s-1
