Factors affecting current in a circuit
In 1–2 sentences, describe the factors that affect the current (amperage) in an electric circuit.(2 points)
1 answer
The current in an electric circuit is affected by the voltage applied to the circuit and the resistance of the components in the circuit. As voltage increases, current also tends to increase, but higher resistance will result in lower current.
