In some case yes, such as a simple circuit with a dc power supply, a resistor and a light bulb. As the Voltade increase, current also increase according to ohms laws" I = V/R". Although in some case such as transformer is quite the opposite. Don't want to go in to much details but that all you need to know.

Can the current in a electrical circuit be increased by bulbs?

Yes. In normal house wiring, every time you plug in any lamp or appliance, you will increase the amount of current ("amperes" or just "amps") that you draw. The circuit breakers or fuses in your house's electrical box are there to keep you from plugging so many things in that the wire gets hot enough to cause a fire. Just to be clear however, the light bulbs do not create current. They pull current through themselves. Bulbs (and all other electrical devices) pull electrical current in the same way that opening the water valve on your sink pulls a flow of current of water. Your house's electrical service can be thought of as a water hose with the end plugged up. Whenever you let a little of the water flow out (i.e. ... turn on a light bulb) you create a current of water (an electrical current in the case of our light bulb).


Does amperage increase as the number of bulbs in a parallel circuit increase?

In a parallel circuit, the total amperage increases as the number of bulbs increases because the current has multiple paths to flow through. Each bulb offers a separate path that allows more current to flow. In a parallel circuit, adding more bulbs decreases the total resistance, allowing more current to pass through.


Why increase the amperige in the electrical circuit of a tractor?

Increasing the amperage in the electrical circuit of a tractor can provide more power for accessories or implements that require higher current to operate efficiently. It helps prevent overheating and voltage drops, ensuring that all electrical components work properly under heavier loads.


What happens when you add more coils to the wire in an electromagnet what else can you do to increase the magnetic field of an electromagnet?

The more loops gives the magnet more voltage. More loops produce more currents. The current that is induced as acts like an opposing magnet and makes it more difficult to move the magnet.

Does electrical current increase as voltage increases?

Electrical current generally increases as voltage increases due to a need for increased capacity. This is directly controlled from the transmission side but varies based on the overall load.


Does electrical current generally increase as resistance decreases?

Ohm's Law Voltage = Current x Resistance. So for a fixed voltage as R decreases then current increases proportionally.


When a wire is smaller the resistance increases What happens to the electrical current?

When resistance decreases what happens to current?

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


What is electrical fore proportional to?

In a direct current (DC) circuit, electrical power is proportional to both voltage and current according to the equation P = V * I, where P is power, V is voltage, and I is current. This relationship dictates that as either voltage or current increases, electrical power will also increase.


What happens if you increase the current in an electomagnet?

As current increases, the electromagnet strength will increase.


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.


What increases when current increases?

If current increases, then voltage also has to increase, assuming that resistance stay relatively the same. Power will also increase. Since power is the product of voltage and current, then the power increase would be the square of the voltage or current change.


An electrical tool that increases or decreases the voltage in an electrical current is?

What else increases as energy carried by a current increases?

The amount of electric energy that is converted into thermal energy increases as the resistance of wire increases. As the resistance in the current increases, the current in the circuit decreases.


In an electromagnet the magnetic forces increase as increases?

It increases as the current increases.
