Probably ok if the new supply can produce the required amount of current in amps.

Can I use a 10 amp 125 volt power cord on my computer's 6 amp 125 volt input?
Sure
How many amps does a 220 ac use?
There is no standard Amperage for a 220 volt outlet. It all depends on the wires/conductors used to supply the outlet and the breaker that protects it. You can have an outlet with: 15 amp, 220 volt 20 amp, 220 volt And so on.....
What is 40va?
It is 40 volt-amps, which is 40 volts at 1 amp, or 10 volts at 4 amps, etc. On an AC supply it could be equal also to 40 watts, or some lesser number of watts depending on the power factor of the load.
How can you use a 120 volt dryer on 100 volt plug?
In the US, Canada and other countries running a similar 60 Hz power supply service, household lighting and low-power appliances run at 120 volts plus or minus 10%. So the actual voltage supplied can change betwen 108 volts and 132 volts and would still be within proper limits. (To get the actual figures for your locality it is best to ask a local licensed electrician or your local electricity supply company.) But please note the above answer is for low-power appliances only, not clothes dryers. Dryers have to draw a much higher current or amperage than your normal 120 volt socket outlets can supply. For more information on installing a new breaker, circuit wiring and the correct socket outlet to suit a 120 volt dryer, please see the answers to the Related questionsshown below.
What is the power of a ciruit with 10 ohmns 10 volts and 2 amps?
Well, first of all, if the resistance of the circuit is 10 ohms and you connect 10 volts to it,then the current is 1 Amp, not 2 . So either there's something else in your circuit thatyou're not telling us about, or else the circuit simply doesn't exist.-- If you connect some voltage to some resistance, then the resistance heats up anddissipates (voltage)2/resistancewatts of power, and the power supply has to supply it.-- If there is some current flowing through some resistance, then the resistance heats up anddissipates (current)2 x (resistance)watts of power, and the power supply has to supply it.-- If there's a circuit with some voltage connected to it and some current flowingthrough it, then the resistance of the circuit is (voltage)/(current) ohms, the partsin the circuit heat up and dissipate (voltage) x (current) watts of power, andthe power supply has to supply it.There's no such thing as "the power of a circuit". The power supply supplies thecircuit with some amount of power, the circuit either dissipates or radiates someamount of power, and the two amounts are equal.
Can you replace a 5 volt power supply with a 10 volt power supply?
If the power supply has a 5 volt tap on the secondary side of the transformer, yes. If there is no tap and the secondary side of the power supply is only 10 volts then no, you can not substitute the higher voltage unit.
Can you use a 10 volt power supply for a 9 volt keyboard?
Using a 10 volt power supply for a 9 volt keyboard is not a good idea. The higher voltage will cause damage to the keyboard, burning it out and making it useless.
Does an 180 volt appliance require 240 volt supply?
No, it requires a 180 Volt supply. Most appliances work +/- 10%, in this case 162 Volts to 198 Volts. I would question whether your appliance is really 180 Volt. No country uses this as domestic supply, it is usually 110V or 220-240V.
What will happen if a 6.3 volt light bulb is hooked up to a 10 volt power source?
the possibility is the will get burnt
Can I use a 10 amp 125 volt power cord on my computer's 6 amp 125 volt input?
Sure
How do you change a 4 V DC 2 Amp power supply to 4 V DC 200 mA?
As Dave says there is no obvious reason to do so. However if you put a 200mA fuse or circuit breaker in series between the supply and the load you will protect the load from pulling more than 200mA from the supply should the load malfunction. That way the load is protected from damaging itself (if that was your concern).
Which Power in voltages in DC is not NOT supported by power supply of the PC?
+10
What are the applications and advantages of single phase power supply varies fom 0V to 13V DC?
This DC voltage variation is typically used in controllers; zero (o) is stop and 13 Volts is maximum. More typical is zero to 5 volt or zero to 10 volt DC control.
What is the power dissipated by a 10 ohm resistor with 20 volts supply?
A 10 ohm resistor across a 20 volt source has 2 amps flowing through it. A 20 volt source providing 2 amps is producing 40 watts. Voltage is Resistance times AmperesWatts is Voltage times AmperesAlternative AnswerDivide the square of the voltage by the resistance.
Can you add 600 watt power supply to a computer that currently runs a 350 watt power supply?
Yes you should be fine. As long as it fits in the computer, you're fine. Replace the old with the new one but keep the old one in case the new one doesn't work! 300 watts is fine for replacing something smaller. You should run only one power supply at a time. What this means is that you should replace the 185 Watt supply with the 300. Having 2 separate power supplies creates the possibility of having slightly different values for ground, +5V, and +12V DC. This can cause problems with all of your computer components. Don't use both, replace the old one with the better one. <- There are some motherboards that REQUIRE two power supplies, but you probably don't have one. They're server mb's, and the reason you use dual supplies is, if one supply dies the computer uses the live one and notifies the system operator "one supply just cooked, get me a new one pls." This eliminates a point of failure. If you've got one of these mb's, both supplies have to be the same: two 300w, two 750w, whatever. Really, though, with the amount of juice some of these new video cards pull, I wouldn't even consider installing a 300w power supply in anything except a server, a lot of which are "headless"--they don't have video outs, you control them over your network. Go with at least a 500w supply, and if you might have the need for a dual-head system--two monitors are GREAT, don't let anyone tell you different--go with a 1200w supply.

What is the amps of a 9v battery?
A 9 volt battery is only going to supply about 50 milli-amps of current. Remember the size of the battery and how it is constructed. It is literally a pile of 1.5 volt cells stacked together to make a 9 volt package. Those cells are just so big, and have limited current as a result For your question, get the 6 to 12 volt AC operated power pack. You'll be dealing with the low voltage side, and barring a failure of the device, your load will never see the 110 volt supply side. To get the kind of current that you need from 9 volt batteries, figure of 50 mA (milli-amps) each, divided into the current the project needs. If it is 500 mA, then you need 10, 9 volt batteries. They are not going to last very long either. So, for your needs and desires, go get the AC operated power supply, just fuse it at a bit less than what you need it to produce in terms of current draw.
