Detailed Solution

All three cross-section are in series. So, the value of current is same through the cross sections 1, 2 and 3.

Current density, J=iA

Cross sections (3) is smallest. So, the current density is the maximum at the cross sections (3).

Drift velocity, vd=ineA=Jne

Cross sections (3) is smallest. So, the current density is the maximum at the cross sections (3). Thus, the drift velocity is greatest at the cross section (3).

Electric Field, E=ρJ

Cross sections (3) is smallest. So, the current density is the maximum at the cross sections (3). Thus, the electric filed is maximum at the cross section (3).
