Does the amperage double when you double both the current and the voltage in a circuit?
No, the amperage does not necessarily double when both the current and voltage are doubled. Amperage (current) is determined by Ohm's Law, which states that current (I) equals voltage (V) divided by resistance (R). If both voltage and current are doubled while resistance remains constant, the new current would actually be four times the original current, not just double.
What else can I help you with?
If you double both the voltage and the resistance in a circuit what would be the effect on the current?
If you double the voltage in a circuit, the power is quadrupled, assuming the resistance stays the same.
Will doubling the resistance in a circuit halve the current if voltage is held constant?
If resistance is halved while voltage remains constant, the current will double.
What happens to the current flowing in a circuit if its resistance is doubled?
Using Ohms Law: V = I x R, where V (Voltage), I (Current), and R (Resistance). re-arranging: V/R = I Therefore if you double both the Voltage and the Resistance, the current remains unchanged.Current = Voltage / Resistance. If both resistance and voltage double the current remains the same.
If the voltage in a resistive is double the power will be?
In a resistive load circuit, the power = multiplication of voltage and Current. By increasing the voltage power will not be increased. Power is defined by the load as per its design. If the voltage is higher the load current will reduce. However running a load at double the rated voltage is not good for the device. Insulation may fail.
1amp 1volt 1ohm travels at 186000 miles a second if you double the voltage does it double the speed in which it travels the circuit?
Doubling the voltage in a circuit does not double the propagation speed in that circuit. It only doubles the available energy (volts is joules per coulomb), which doubles the current (amperes is coulombs per second), and quadruples the power (watts is joules per second).
What are the two reasons for the current to double in a circuit?
Since current = voltage / resistance, I = V/R, the current in a circuit will double if either the voltage doubles, or the resistance is halved.
If you double both the voltage and the resistance in a circuit what would be the effect on the current?
If you double the voltage in a circuit, the power is quadrupled, assuming the resistance stays the same.
What happens if you double the number of batteries used in a circuit?
the voltage and current doubles
Will doubling the resistance in a circuit halve the current if voltage is held constant?
If resistance is halved while voltage remains constant, the current will double.
How does the potential difference across the electric circuit affect current?
In a very simple way. As long as nothing changes in the circuit, the current that flows from the power supply or battery into the circuit is directly proportional to the voltage of the supply. -- If you double the voltage across the ends of the circuit, the current will double. -- If you turn the voltage up to 3.4027 times its original value, the current will increase to 3.4027 times its original value. -- If you decrease the voltage by 81.7 percent, the current will decrease by 81.7 percent.
What would current amperes do if the voltage were doubled in a circuit?
If the voltage in a circuit were doubled, the current would also double according to Ohm's Law (I = V/R), assuming the resistance in the circuit remains constant. This is because current is directly proportional to voltage when resistance is held constant.
What happen to current in a circuit if the voltage in not charged but the resistant is double?
In an electrical circuit, if resistance is doubled, EMF (measured in volts) stays constant, and current is halved.
How does the voltage applied to a circuit affect the current flowing through the wire?
Voltage is equal to the Current multiplied by the Resistance.Without changing the resistance, increasing the applied voltage in a circuit will increase current flow. There is a simple, direct relationship between voltage and current. Double the voltage, twice the current will flow. Triple the voltage, and the current will triple. As voltage (E) equals current (I) times resistance (R), when resistance is fixed, what happens to voltage will happen to current.
When current flow in electrical circuit is 2 amps what will the current flow be if the power doubles and the voltage remains the same?
Since power is voltage times amperes, in order to double the power while voltage remains the same, you must double the current - 4 amps in this case.
What happens to the current flowing in a circuit if its resistance is doubled?

How the magnitude of voltage and current will behave if you double the RC-ciRCuit input frequency?
If you double the the RC circuit input frequence, the magnitude of voltage and current depends on whether or not the RC circuit is configured low-pass or high-pass, and on whether or not the original frquency is close to the knee frequency (the -3db point). The question has insufficient information to be answered completely.
