How many amp will reduced if voltage increases from 120 volt to 220 volt?

The voltage cannot just be increased in a circuit because there is a risk of damage, blown circuit breakers and/or fire.
However an appliance desgined to run on 220 v will use 6/11ths of the current used by an identical appliance designed for 120 v.

How many joules in 70 9 volt batteries in series?
This is about the question I wanted answered; maybe I can point you in the right direction. The answer is more than the sum of 70 batteries as putting them in series increases the voltage and increases the total energy of the system. My question is where does the increase of energy actually come from?
What is the output voltage from microphone?
It is in millivolts (less than a volt).
How to control the high voltage control in an industry?
Voltage stabilisers are the devices to control voltage. These are of 3 types i.e. VARIAC BASED,IGBT BASED and THERMISTOR TYPE. These are classified according to voltage correction speed i.e. from 70 volt/second to 750 volt/seconds.
The output voltage from a PC power supply are?
Generally, there will be a 12+ volt rail, a 5+ volt rail and often a 3+ volt rail.
What is the purpose of transmitting electricity at high voltage?
Less current, greater efficiency, reduced volt drop
Can a 230 volt supply be reduced down to 208 volts?
Yes it can be transformed from one voltage to the other.
What is the purpose at transmitting electricity at high voltage?
Less current, greater efficiency, reduced volt drop
Can you run 110 volts saftely through a 277 volt ballast?
No, by reducing the input voltage by half the output voltage will also be reduced and will not have enough voltage to operate the fixture it is connected to.
How many voltage used in motherboard?

What device increases or decreases the volt- age of alternating current?
A transformer can step up or step down AC voltage
What is the unit of electrical voltage?

How many amps are in 40 volt amps?
Multiply the vots by the amps to find the volt-amps. Or divide the volt-amps by the voltage to find the amps.
Units of voltage?
Voltage (V)AnswerThere is no base unit for voltage. The volt is a derived unit.
How many volts of energy does plutonium 238 produce?
Volt is a unit of voltage.
Can you charge an 8 volt battery with 6 volt charger?
No, you cannot charge an 8 volt battery with a 6 volt charger. The voltage of the charger must match the voltage of the battery.
Can you use a 125 volt bulb in a 120 volt lamp?
Yes, the voltage listed on the bulb is the nominal voltage and it will work perfectly on a 120 volt circuit.
