A. To increase the current, decrease the resistance.

B. Ohm's law relates power, current and resistance.

C. Increasing the voltage decreases current if resistance stays the same.

D. Keeping the same voltage and decreasing resistance decreases the current.

For the camcorder P = V x I

So I = P/V

for the hair dryer V = I x R

for multiple choice A

for the wire R = V/I
