The energy supplied by a power line is determined by its load, not by its voltage. For a given energy demand by its load, the higher the liine's voltage, the lower the resulting load current.

No it cant. Voltage = Current x Resistance. So at constant Voltage if the Resistance is increased, Current will reduce

How does current affects voltage?

In common, any application if voltage is increased current will be the small amount. at the same if voltage Decreased current will be increased...AnswerAccording to Ohm's Law, 'the current flowing through a conductor is directly proportional to the applied voltage, provided certain conditions, such as temperature, remain constant'. So if you double the voltage, the resulting current will double; if you halve the voltage, the current will halve.


Can the amount of energy that can be carried by a power transmission line can be increased by raising the voltage using transformers?

Yes. Most power loss in transmission lines occurs due to "resistive" losses in the wire, power is dissipated as P=I x I x R. For a given power, P=I x V. Using a transformer, you can shift to higher voltage, lower current to minimize those losses. At the destination, another transformer may shift the voltage down and the current up--this is how high tension power lines transmit power over long distances.CommentIt is incorrect to say that a transformer 'shifts... current up'! Current is determined by the load, not by transformation ratio!


How would the wavelength and frequency of a wave would change if the amount of energy it carried was increased?

If the amount of energy a wave carries is increased, the frequency would increase while the wavelength decreases. This is because energy is directly proportional to frequency and inversely proportional to wavelength in a wave.

What is collision theory?

The collision theory is when atoms, molecules or ions bash together or collide together. Collision theory states that the rate of a reaction may be increased by : increasing pressure; raising the amount of heat energy; raising the concentration of the reactant and by introducing a catalyst.


What is the effect of the temperature on the vapour pressure?

When temperature is increased the amount of molecules evaporated is increasef and as a consequence condensation is also increased so vapour pressure increases.

What does higher voltage mean and how does it impact electrical devices?

Higher voltage refers to the amount of electrical force in a circuit. When voltage is increased, it can cause electrical devices to operate more efficiently or with more power. However, if the voltage is too high, it can damage the device or even cause it to malfunction. It is important to use the correct voltage for each electrical device to ensure proper functioning and safety.
