Detailed Solution

Drift velocity $= (\frac{eτ}{m}) E$

$v_{d} = (\frac{eτ}{m}) (\frac{ΔV}{ℓ})$

$∆ V =$ Potential difference applied across the wire

As temperature increases, relaxation time decreases, hence V_d decreases.

As per formula, $V_{d} \propto \frac{1}{ℓ}$

$V_{d} = \frac{I}{neA}$ , as it is not mentioned that current is at steady state neither it is mentioned that n is constant for given conductor. So it can't be said that V_d is inversely proportional to A.

$\begin{array}{l} I = {neAv}_{d} = \frac{V}{R} = \frac{V}{ρℓ} A \\ v_{d} = \frac{V}{ρℓnn} (E = \frac{V}{ℓ}) \\ v_{d} = \frac{eEτ}{m} \end{array}$

$τ$ decrease with temperature increase.

First and fourth statements are correct.
