Increase in resistance means that when the resistance of the substance increase by application of some external sources like temperature etc. or when the flow of current through the substance gradually decreases then the resistances increases. Vice versa in case for decrease in resistance.
Alternative AnswerResistance is determined by the length, cross-sectional area, and resistivity of a conductor. Resistivity is, in turn, affected by temperature -so temperature indirectly affects resistance.
These are the only factors that affect resistance. Voltage and current have no direct effect whatsoever on resistance. Current can affect resistance indirectly if it causes the conductor's temperature to increase.
For AC circuits, 'skin effect', due to frequency, causes the current to flow towards the surface of a conductor which acts to reduce the effective cross-sectional area of that conductor. So, frequency can also indirectly affect resistance.
What else can I help you with?
Should you increase voltage or resistance to increase flow in a circuit?
To increase (current) flow in a circuit you increase voltage (or decrease resistance). Ohm's Law: Current = Voltage divided by resistance
Does heating a metal wire increase or decrease its electrical resistance?
it so increases it
Why secondary terminal voltage decreases with increase in load?
An increase in load (equivalent to a decrease in resistance*) causes an increase in load current. This increases the internal voltage drop within the transformer, and the terminal voltage reduces accordingly.[*An increase in load means more current is being drawn by that load, so an increase in load is equivalent to a decrease in load resistance]
Does the magnetic field increase or decrease if the current is decreased?
An increase in an electrical current will cause magnetism to increase but a decrease in an electrical current will cause magnetism to decrease.

How do you decrease voltage?
Increase resistance
What happens to to the speed of a motor if i increase or decrease the number of bulbs in a circit?
If you increase the number of bulbs in a circuit, the resistance in the circuit will increase, causing the motor's speed to decrease. If you decrease the number of bulbs, the resistance in the circuit will decrease, causing the motor's speed to increase.
When tempratere increase resistance increase and when resistance increase current decrease why?
That's what "resistance" is all about: reducing the current for a given voltage. In fact, you can DEFINE resistance as voltage divided by current.
Should you increase voltage or resistance to increase flow in a circuit?
To increase (current) flow in a circuit you increase voltage (or decrease resistance). Ohm's Law: Current = Voltage divided by resistance
Due to heat would the resistance in non-ohmic material decrease or increase?
Increase
Doubling the resistance in a circuit will increase or decrease amperage?
If voltage remains constant and resistance is increased, the amperage will decrease per Ohm's Law.
What are two ways to increase the current in a wire?
Increase the voltage applied to the wire. Decrease the resistance of the wire.
How do you increase and decrease frictional force?
To increase frictional force, you can increase the roughness of the surfaces in contact, increase the normal force pressing the surfaces together, or increase the coefficient of friction by using materials that interact with more resistance. To decrease frictional force, you can use lubricants to reduce surface interaction, decrease the normal force, or use smoother materials to reduce resistance.
Does air resistance increase or decrease the acceleration of a falling obect?
Well, the more the air resistance, the lower the acceleration.
Does heating a metal wire increase or decrease its electrical resistance?
it so increases it
Will the resistance of a copper conductor decrease with an increase in the applied voltage?
If all environmental conditions remain constant then the resistance will not change appreciably with applied voltage, but the current will increase. An increase in current will raise the temperature of the conductor which will increase the resistance somewhat.
