The Correct Option is C

Solution and Explanation

Concept:
Ohm's law relates voltage, current, and resistance.

Step 1:
According to Ohm's law: \[ V=IR \]

Step 2:
Therefore: \[ I=\frac{V}{R} \]

Step 3:
If resistance \(R\) remains constant, current is directly proportional to voltage. \[ I\propto V \]

Step 4:
If voltage is doubled, then current also becomes doubled.

Step 5:
Hence, the current will be doubled. \[ \boxed{\text{Be doubled}} \]
