North Atlantic Current eastward and becomes much broader and more diffuse. It then splits into a colder northeastern branch and a warmer eastern branch. As the warmer branch turns southward, most of the subtropical component of the Gulf Stream is diverted southward, and as a consequence, the North Atlantic is mostly supplied by subpolar waters, including a contribution from the Labrador Current recirculated into the NAC at 45°N. West of Continental Europe, it splits into two major branches. One branch goes southeast, becoming the Canary Current as it passes northwest Africa and turns southwest. The other major branch continues north along the coast
Drift current through a square centimeter area perpendicular to the direction of flow. (i) Drift current density J, due to free electrons is given by: formula_1 (ii) Drift current density J, due to holes is given by: formula_2 Where: n - Number of free electrons per cubic centimeter. p - Number of holes per cubic centimeter formula_3 – Mobility of electrons in formula_4 formula_5 – Mobility of holes in formula_4 E – Applied Electric Field Intensity in V /cm q – Charge of an electron = 1.6 × 10 coulomb. Drift current In condensed matter physics and electrochemistry, drift current is the
