Based on the simplest Electrical Equation V = I * R,
(reads: voltage equals current multiplied by resistance)
then, rearranged I = V / R .
As resistance decreases, current flow proportionately increases

∙ 13y agoWhen the resistance decreases the current of the circuit is increases to maintain the voltage constant
ANSWER: The current increases Current does not keep voltage stable if resistance is reduced. And current does not increase resistance except as a function of heat generated

∙ 13y agothe current increases with a decrease in resistance.Remember I=V/R
Wiki User
∙ 13y agofor a constant voltage , if the resistance is reduced then the current increases but for a dc machine like motor if the current will decrease if resistance is decreased in armature side
Wiki User
∙ 12y agoResistance connected either series the current get increases
Wiki User
∙ 12y agoIf resistance is decreased, and everything else remains the same, current will increase.
Ohm's Law: Current = Voltage divided by resistance
Wiki User
∙ 12y agoThe Current in an Electrical Circuit Increase as Resistance Decreases: I = E/R, Current = Voltage Divided By Resistance, therefore as R decreases I increases.

∙ 10y agoCurrent will increase under those conditions.

If voltage remains constant and resistance decreases current flow?
the current will increase because of a lower level of resistance , hence more current will flow- easily
How does load current varies with the load resistance?
Load current is related to load resistance by an inverse relationship. The load current increases linearly as load resistance decreases. Remember, the less resistance, the more current.
What happens to the resistance of a metal when it is heated?
its resistence considerably decreases
If the value of resistance increased then?
If the resistance is increased the current, which is inversely proportional, decreases and, the voltage drop increases.
What happens to the current of the wire when the length increases?
resistance is directly proportional to wire length and inversely proportional to wire cross-sectional area. In other words, If the wire length is doubled, the resistance is doubled too. If the wire diameter is doubled, the resistance will reduce to 1/4 of the original resistance.
What happens to the current as the resistance decreases?
it increases
What happens to the current in a circuit if the resistance is increase?
If resistance is increased, current decreases. Ohm's Law: current equals voltage divided by resistance.
What happens to the current in the circuit if the resistance is increased?
If resistance is increased, current decreases. Ohm's Law: current equals voltage divided by resistance.
What happens when a part of a parallel circuit is disconnected?
current decreases and resistance increases
What happens in a circuit when the resistance gets greater?
Flow of current decreases proportionately.
What happens to the power of an electric circuit of the resistance is decreased?
if the resistance is decreased and the current stays the same, then the power decreases.
How does the increasing the resistance affect the current?
Increasing resistance decreases current.
How does increasing the resistance affect the current?
Increasing resistance decreases current.
When resistance increase the current does what?
The current decreases.
How does loading effect affect flow of current?
Ohm's Law says that Voltage = Current x Resistance (Load). Therefore Current = Voltage / Resistance and as resistance decreases current increases and as resistance increases current decreases.
If voltage remains constant and resistance decreases current flow?
the current will increase because of a lower level of resistance , hence more current will flow- easily
Does electrical current generally increase as resistance decreases?
Ohm's Law Voltage = Current x Resistance. So for a fixed voltage as R decreases then current increases proportionally.
