1) Drift velocity: 
2.
electrons per individual
Explanation:
1)
In a conducting material with an electric current, the drift velocity of electrons can be calculated using this equation:

where
I stands for current
n represents the density of free electrons
indicates the charge of an electron
A signifies the wire's cross-sectional area
The wire's cross-sectional area can be determined as

where r denotes the wire's radius. Thus, the equation transforms to

In this scenario, we have:
I = 8.0 A as the current
indicates the free electron concentration
d = 1.5 mm is the diameter, making the radius
r = 1.5/2 = 0.75 mm = 
So, the resulting drift velocity is:

2)
The entire length of the cord is
L = 3.00 m
And the cross-sectional area is

Consequently, the volume of the cord is
(1)
The number of electrons per unit volume is
, thus the total electrons in this cord would be

Overall, the Earth's population rounds to 8 billion individuals, equating to

Hence, the number of electrons distributed to each person is:
