How can I make a folder in a Pen-Drive using terminal?

I had opened a Pen-Drive in my system and I thought to open my Pen-Drive from terminal and copy the needed file from system to Pen-Drive from terminal only. But I was wondering how I can do that. Can you please suggest me procedure for doing the same?

    Actually all mounted devices including system partitions will be in a directory named as media.

    Open your terminal and type the following one after one

    cd /

    cd media

    There you can find your partitions including your Pen-Drive or USB device.

    Next with cp command you can copy and paste the data from Pen-Drive to system and vice-versa.

    Syntax:

    cp  <source-path> <destination-path>
