    The current in the circuit increases

    Explanation:

    The ohm's law states that the potential across a circuit is proportional to the current in the circuit.

    V ∝ I

    Where 'V' is the potential difference across the circuit and 'I' is the current in the circuit.

    The proportionality constant present in the equation is the resistance of the circuit. Hence, the equation becomes

    V = IR

    According to the equation, when V is directly proportional to 'I' where 'R' remains as constant, then the change in 'V is brings change in 'I' to make the equation valid.

    So, when there is an increase in the voltage, the current on the circuit increases.
