Yes, if the resistance remains constant. Power is voltage times current, and current is voltage divided by resistance, so power is voltage squared divided by resistance. In essence, the power increases as the square of the voltage.

∙ 11y agoThe voltage is going to increase as well following ohms law ( that is current is directly proportional to the applied voltage)
AnswerThe voltage will probably remain constant. For example, if the resistance of a circuit falls in value, then the current will increase -but the voltage will be unaffected and remain constant.

∙ 11y agoThat depends on the circuit. If the circuit is a linear voltage regulator, nothing happens to the amount of current. If the circuit is a resistive the current will go up. If the circuit is a switching power supply, the output will remain the same but the input current will decrease for an increased input voltage.

According to Ohm's Law, Current Increases when Voltage increases (I=V/R), but Current decreases when Voltage increases according to (P = VI) formula....
Therefore, if the voltage is increased, the current will increase provided the resistance of the circuit does not change.

According to Ohm's Law V=IR so, If current is increased probably voltages are also increasing. But if there is short path with 0 resistance there current will be maximum but voltages are zero

When voltage increased the flow of current also be increased if other quantities remain constant. But if you see voltage remain same but current flow increases that means resistance decreases.

What happens to zener current after the breakdown voltage is reached?
After breakdown voltage is reached in a zener diode the current increases drastically.
When resistance decreases what happens to current?
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
As the voltage applied to a circuit increases the current and the also increase?
answer is actually voltage
What happens to electrical current as voltage is increased?
If everything else stays the same, power increases as EMF increases. (EMF is to volts as power is to watts.)EMF = Electromotive Force.AnswerPower is proportional to the square of the voltage. So, if you double the voltage, you'll quadruple the power... providing everything else stays the same!
Does the current ina circuit increase with increase in temperature?
Resistance increases as temperature increases. If Voltage is held constant then according to Ohm's Law Voltage = Current x Resistance then current would decrease as resistance increases.
What happens to electrical current and voltage in a parallel circuit as you add more bulbs?
Voltage remains constant; current increases.
What happens to zener current after the breakdown voltage is reached?
After breakdown voltage is reached in a zener diode the current increases drastically.
What happens to the current in a device if the resistance of the device increases and the voltage difference stays the same?
If resistance increases and voltage stays the same, then current decreases. Ohm's Law: Current equals Voltage divided by Resistance.
What happens to the power in a circuit as the current increases?
P=VI If current (I) increases then P will increase proportionally. That is, assuming that voltage (V) remains constant. If voltage decreases and current increases or vice versa, proportionally then P will remain the same.
What happens with electric current when applying the same voltage the resistance of the circuit is reduced?
As the resistance is reduced across the same voltage, the current increases.
What happens to current flow if circuit resistance increases and voltage remains the same?
nothing
If voltage changes in a ac circuit what happens to current?
Voltage attempts to make a current flow, and current will flow if the circuit is complete. It is possible to have voltage without current, but current cannot flow without voltage. The answer is "yes",voltage remains the same as current moves through the circuit.As the voltage remains constant, current increases in the circuit.
What happens to the current when the voltage becomes limited at the knee?
A: Perfect example is a zener. As input voltage increases the current at the knee increases almost linearly at the zener voltage. If the inputs varies up or down then the current will vary up or down at the preset voltage making a zener a voltage regulator because of this feature
What increases when current increases?
If current increases, then voltage also has to increase, assuming that resistance stay relatively the same. Power will also increase. Since power is the product of voltage and current, then the power increase would be the square of the voltage or current change.
What is the relationsip between current and voltage?
Ohm's law says Voltage = Current x Resistance. As voltage increases, currrent increases proportionally with a fixed load.
What happens to voltage when resistance increases?
Ohm's law states that "The current is directly proportional to the applied EMF (voltage) and inversely proportional to the resistance in the circuit." <<>> if resistor exists, resistance decreases according to ohm's law, current is directly proportional to voltage and current is inversely proportional to resistance it means as current increases, voltage increases. resistance increases, current decreases so as voltage if there is no resistor, there should be no resistance except internal resistance of voltmeter and ammeter
When resistance decreases what happens to current?
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
