The current (amperage) flowing in a circuit is related to, amongst other things, the voltage and the wattage of the device being used. To find the amperage in a circuit use the formula A=W/V, where A = amps, W = Watts and V = Volts.
For instance if the supply voltage is 120 V and the device is 1200 Watts the amperage drawn would be 1200 divided by 120 which would equal 10 amps.
The circuit is also constrained by the rating of the fuse or circuit breaker and the dimensions of the conducing cable.

If a charge of 12C moves past a given point every two secounds how much charge is the intensity of charge flow?
That is 6 amps. One coulomb passing a point once a second is defined as one amp. Take the number of coulombs that have passed the point and divide it by the time it took the charge to pass (in seconds) and you have the current in amps.
How much amps is used for home?
An average home nowadays has a 200 amp panel. The dryer and stove use 30 and 40 amps and almost everything else is 15 amps.
How much current will flow in a circuit with a 12 VDC source connected to a 1K load?
In a 12VDC circuit with a 1K load, there will be 12ma of current. (Ohm's law: Volts = Amps * Ohms, so Amps = Volts / Ohms.)
How much amps in a 3 v circuit?
This cannot be answered without knowing what size load you are connecting to the circuit. In the absence of a load, with a dead short, you will get a flow of amps at the maximum that the power supply can provide. I have no way of knowing what that is.
How much does a basic home freezer pull in amps?
10 to 12 amps at 110 volts, as a surge when the motor first starts up, then about half that during the rest of the cycle.
How much current would flow through a 75 w bulb in a 220 v curcuit?
The formula you are looking for is I = W/E. Amps = Watts/Volts.
What is an unit that tells how much electric current flow through a wire?
amperes or A.
What does ohm sign symbolize?
The ohm is the unit of electrical resistance to current flow. More ohms (more resistance), the less current will flow. Less ohms (less resistance), the more current will flow. One ohm is defined as the amount of resistance that will cause one ampere of current to flow if the supply voltage is one volt. Ohm's law states that amps = volts / ohms So, if you had a 12 volt battery, and you connected a load, say a heating element that had a resistance of 3 ohms, how much current would flow in the circuit? amps = 12 volts / 3 ohms amps = 4
1ht amps equal to how much lt amps?
26.2
How much voltage does the average home air conditioner use?
Between 18 to 24 amps, depending on ton capacity.
How much amps take 12v 50w halogen lamb?
4.16 Amps
How much can a 20 kilowatt generator power a home's furnace and vital appliances?
The formula to use is I = W/E. Amps = 20000/240 = 83 amps. Check the nameplate of the equipment that you want to connect to the generator. You can add equipment up to the total of 20000 watts or 83 amps.
