"Ohms Law" defines resistance (R) as the the ratio of voltage (V) to current (I).
R = V/I
If you move those variables around, you can get the formula:
I = V/R
So you can see that when resistance increases, current flow will decrease.
CommentResistance is most definitely not defined as 'the ratio of voltage to current', although that ratio may tell you what it happens to be.
Resistance isn't a variable in the Ohm's Law equation. It is a constant because it is unaffected by either current or resistance.
As the resistance of the variable resistor increases the current in the circuit will decrease. This will cause the light globe to dim.
current decreases and resistance increases
Ohm's law states that "The current is directly proportional to the applied EMF (voltage) and inversely proportional to the resistance in the circuit." <<>> if resistor exists, resistance decreases according to ohm's law, current is directly proportional to voltage and current is inversely proportional to resistance it means as current increases, voltage increases. resistance increases, current decreases so as voltage if there is no resistor, there should be no resistance except internal resistance of voltmeter and ammeter
What happens to the current in a circuit as a capacitor charges depends on the circuit. As a capacitor charges, the voltage drop across it increases. In a typical circuit with a constant voltage source and a resistor charging the capacitor, then the current in the circuit will decrease logarithmically over time as the capacitor charges, with the end result that the current is zero, and the voltage across the capacitor is the same as the voltage source.
Ohm's law states that "The current is directly proportional to the applied EMF (voltage) and inversely proportional to the resistance in the circuit."AnswerIf the voltage across a circuit increases, then the current will increase too. If the ratio of voltage to current is constant for variations in voltage, then the circuit is described as being 'linear' and is obeying Ohm's Law; if the ratio of voltage to current changes (as it would, for example, with tungsten) for variations in voltage, then the circuit is described as being 'non-linear', and is not obeying Ohm's Law. This is because Ohm's Law is not universal, and only applies to certain materials; in fact, most materials and electronic devices do not obey Ohm's Law.
What do you mean by a 'parallel delta' circuit -is there such a connection.
current decreases and resistance increases
nothing
As the resistance is reduced across the same voltage, the current increases.
Current decreasesWhen voltage remains constant and resistance increases the current in the circuit will reduce.More informationV=IRwhere V is voltage,I is current andR is resistance.From the above equation,R=V/I, and hence resistance is indirectly proportional to current.Therefore, an increase in resistance would have the effect of decreased current.NB: this holds true only as long as the voltage remains constant.Another opinionHowever, this is only true in the case of a circuit connected in series.When circuits are connected in parallel, the opposite happens. If there is an increase in the amount of resistors in parallel, the total resistance of the circuit then decreases and the current increases subsequently.Yet another viewNo, that's not stated right.If more resistors are added in parallel - so that the circuit's overall total resistance decreases and its total current increases - that is NOT in any way the opposite of what this question is asking about...Let's make this crystal clear, so that there is no confusion: "an increase in the amount of resistors" is NOT the same as "an increase in resistance".So a parallel circuit behaves EXACTLY the same as a series circuit: if its overall resistance increases, the overall current going through the parallel circuit decreases AND if its overall resistance decreases, the overall current going through the parallel circuit increases.Actually, the second opinion is correctIn a parallel circuit, there are more branches to allow electrons back to the power supply, so current increases. With more resistors in a circuit, the overall resistance in a parallel circuit DECREASES.In a series circuit, current is the same throughout. So if more resistors are added, resistance INCREASES and so current DECREASES.
When you add resistance to a circuit, current goes down. Ohm's Law: current = voltage divided by resistance.
it increases
Based on the simplest Electrical Equation V = I * R,(reads: voltage equals current multiplied by resistance)then, rearranged I = V / R .As resistance decreases, current flow proportionately 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.

When the amount of current passing through a circuit increases, it generally increases the temperature, and consequently the resistance. Simply stated, it is harder for the current to pass through the circuit if the temperature increases. The Large Hadron Collider uses superconductors to pass current to its electromagnets. A superconductor passes current through its circuit materials with almost no resistance at all, generally by supercooling the circuit materials.
