Abstract
This work examines some of the important principles of classical physics on metallic conduction and free electrons. This work shows that the speed of nerve conduction is much higher than calculated the drift velocity of electrons in a metal. Inadequacies te of the Drude model of metallic structure and conduction are described. Calculations in this work show that the drift velocity of electrons in metals is much higher than expected with the Drude assumptions and there are fewer free electrons per atom in a metal than conventionally accepted.
