Will current increase if the voltage in a circuit is increased?

Ohm's Law states Voltage = Current x Resistance. Hence if voltage is increased and resistance is constant, current will increase proportionally to the rise in voltage.


In a closed circuit what does an increase in voltage cause?

an increase in current, hence increased power and increased heat.


What would increase if the voltage in a circuit is increased?

The powerBrightness of the bulbThe current


When electric current is flowing in a circuit if the voltage applied to the circuit is increased the?

Correct Answer= "the current will increase"


What happen to the current when the voltage increased if the resistance are constant?

If voltage increases when current remains constant then resistance must also increase. Ohm's Law: Voltage = Current times Resistance.


What happens to voltage when current is increased?

current is decreased Depends of the circuit or device: in a stepdown transformer: power in= power out, V x I = V x I , Increase voltage in (power remaining constant) you current output will increase.


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 voltage if the current increases?

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.


What happens to the current if the number of bulbs stays the same but you use more cells?

If you add more cells in series with the bulbs, the current will increase as the voltage across the bulbs increases. If you add more cells in parallel with the bulbs, the current will stay the same because the voltage of the cells does not increase when they are added in parallel.


Does increasing the voltage to an electric heater increase the amperage it draws?

It will increase the current since the water heater is made of a heating element and which is resistive in nature. Ohms law states that V=IR where V is the voltage, I the current and R the resistance. Now the resistance will always remain constant. Thus, when the voltage is increased, the current will also increase.


How you increase current by keeping voltage constant?

If you are referring to a simple circuit, you could add resistance throughout it. Increased resistance means decreased current flow yet the same voltage.


Does increasing the voltage across a resistor increase the electric current through the resistor?

Resistance is not affected by either voltage or current. It is determined only by the cross-sectional area, length, and resistivity of the material. As resistivity is affected by temperature, resistance is indirectly affected by temperature.In the so-called 'Ohm's Law' equation, resistance is a constant. So, if you increase voltage, the resistance remains constant, and the current would increase in proportional to the voltage.
