Just use Ohms Law: V=IR, that is, voltage (in Volt) = current (in Ampere) x resistance (in Ohms).

If a circuit has a resistance of 4 ohm's how much voltage is needed to produce a 1.4 current in the circuit?
Voltage across a resistance = (resistance) x (current through the resistance) =4 x 1.4 = 5.6If the ' 1.4 ' is Amperes of current, then the required voltage is 5.6 volts.
If you have a DC passing through a circuit will the current decrease when you add a DC motor and if so by how much?
In the circuit where the DC motor is added, it was not specified whether the motor was added in series or in parallel to circuit elements. If it was added in series, it will increase circuit resistance and it will cause circuit current to go down. In parallel, the motor will reduce total circuit resistance, and circuit current will increase.
How much resistance is in the circuit if it uses a current of 0.01 A?
There is insufficient information in the question to properly answer it. You need to specify, also, the voltage, in order to determine resistance from current. Please restate the question. Ohm's Law: Resistance = voltage divided by current.
Does increasing the resistance increase the electric current?
If the current through a pure metallic conductor causes the temperature of that conductor to rise, then its resistance will increase. A practical example of this is an electric lamp. The cold resistance of a lamp is very much lower than the hot resistance.
How is an ohmmeter connected to a circuit?
ANY METER needs some kind of current flow to operate. Internal in the meter there are batteries that provide current that when passed trough a resistor will develop voltage as a function of the current. the meter will read this current and display the resistor size to cause this current to flow.
How much power is dissipated by a circuit with 15000 ohms of resistance and 10mA of current?
15 KOhms times 10 mA = 150 volts. 150 volts times 10 mA = 1.5 watts.

Voltage across a resistance = (resistance) x (current through the resistance) =4 x 1.4 = 5.6If the ' 1.4 ' is Amperes of current, then the required voltage is 5.6 volts.
How much resistance does a light bulb create if it has a current of 25 mA around it in a 9 V circuit?
how much resistance does a light bulb creat if iyt has a current of 25 mA around it in a 9 V circuit?
How much current is in a circuit that includes a 9-volt battery and a bulb with a resistance of 12 ohms?
Current = voltage/resistance If those are the only components in the circuit, then Current = 9/12 = 0.75 Ampere = 750 mA
How do you figure out how much current is in an electrical wire?
If you know the voltage and resistance, then current = voltage divided by resistance. Otherwise, you can attach an ammeter into the circuit (in series).
Can inserting a resistor in a circuit have an effect similar to an open circuit?
If the resistance is large enough, then there might not be enough voltage difference to allow much current. Since, Voltage = Current * Resistance, if resistance goes really large, and your voltage doesn't change, your current must decrease. An open circuit is where you do not have any current flowing, so whether no current verses very little current is the same is up to you.
What would happen to the current in a simple circuit if a bulb with a higher resistance were used?
Ohm's law applies: Current = Voltage / Resistance As such if you double the resistance of the light bulb you end up with half as much current.
If you have a DC passing through a circuit will the current decrease when you add a DC motor and if so by how much?
In the circuit where the DC motor is added, it was not specified whether the motor was added in series or in parallel to circuit elements. If it was added in series, it will increase circuit resistance and it will cause circuit current to go down. In parallel, the motor will reduce total circuit resistance, and circuit current will increase.
How much available current in a 9 volt battery?
It depends on the resistance of the circuit, as V=IR, so I=V/R (V=Voltage, I=Current, R=Resistance)

Does a volt meter takes power from the system?
No it does not. A volt meter only reads the current that is passing through it.AnswerAll instruments draw some (albeit tiny) current from the circuit under test in order to operate. So, if this is what you mean by 'taking power from circuit', then the answer is yes, it does.Instruments also change the normal resistance of the circuit being tested -for example, ammeters increase the resistance of the circuit into which they are connected, while voltmeters decrease the circuit resistance across which they are connected. So adding a voltmeter (or an ammeter) to a circuit affects the operation of that circuit to some degree. To minimise this interference, it is important that an ammeter's internal resistance is very much lower than the circuit's resistance, and a voltmeter's resistance is very much higher than the circuit's resistance.
