If you are referring to a simple circuit, you could add resistance throughout it. Increased resistance means decreased current flow yet the same voltage.

What actions will always increase voltage?
increasing resistance and keeping current constant
How current increases when the load increases in a generator?
Power is voltage times current. If you want to maintain constant voltage and yet increase power, then current must increase. Its simple math.
Will decreasing the resistance in a circuit decrease current flow if voltage is kept constant?
You should answer this question yourself by doing a couple of examples using Ohm's law I=E/R (current equals voltage divided by resistance. Here they are: Base circuit: 10 volt supply feeding a 10 ohm resistor calculate the current... New circuit: 10 volt supply (voltage kept constant) feeding a 20 ohm resistor (increased resistance) calculate the current... Did the current increase, or decrease? This way you can prove to yourself the answer!
If voltage remains constant and resistance decreases current flow?
the current will increase because of a lower level of resistance , hence more current will flow- easily
Does the current ina circuit increase with increase in temperature?
Resistance increases as temperature increases. If Voltage is held constant then according to Ohm's Law Voltage = Current x Resistance then current would decrease as resistance increases.
What will always increase voltage?
increasing resistance and keeping current constant
What actions will always increase voltage?
increasing resistance and keeping current constant
How do you boost current by keeping voltage constant?
in crease resistence
What will increase voltage if current is increased?
a constant resistance
What happen to the current when the voltage increased if the resistance are constant?
If voltage increases when current remains constant then resistance must also increase. Ohm's Law: Voltage = Current times Resistance.
Will current increase if the voltage in a circuit is increased?
Ohm's Law states Voltage = Current x Resistance. Hence if voltage is increased and resistance is constant, current will increase proportionally to the rise in voltage.
Why Does resistance cause voltage drop?
According to Ohm's law i.e. E=IR. When we increase resistance, keeping current constant, voltage will increase as in the above formula since E and R are directly proportional.
If the resistance decreases in a circuit when the voltage remains constant the current will?
Current will increase
An increase in temperature will the attenuation of a cable?
Basically we should also keep in mind knowledge about voltage and current. If we keep voltage constant then by increase in temperature also increase the attenuation, if we keep current constant then attenuation drops by increasing temperature.
How current increases when the load increases in a generator?
Power is voltage times current. If you want to maintain constant voltage and yet increase power, then current must increase. Its simple math.
What happens to the electric current in a wire when voltage is increaced?
If the load resistance is constant, then increasing the voltage will increase the current by the same proportion -i.e. doubling the voltage will double the current.
Can the amperage of a DC current be increased keeping the voltage constant?
According to Ohms law, current will increase in proportion to the voltage increase. Ohms law is an equation:Voltage = current x resistance.If the resistance stays the same, any increase in voltage must mean a proportional increase in current according to this equation.
