Sir, I use windows 10 64 bit but using b4a 32 bit with jdk 8.0.... I have many projects developed on that laptop.
I would like to know sir,
1) What will be the impact on my current projects in b4a if i changed b4a to 64 bit with of course jdk 11? Will code work as before or i should have to do some changes?
2) Also what minimum RAM is recommended for 64 bit b4a on a windows 10 laptop?

In B4A - none, and if you are compiling libraries using SLC it is best to use JDK 8 until Erel fixes some bugs in BADoclet that can produce corrupt XML files with JDK 11 and later. Once your Android app has compiled to a jar it is further recompiled (by the dexer) to Android byte codes so there is no trace of the JDK left at runtime.

It is a different matter for B4J when the compiled jar potentially needs a runtime that matches the one it as compiled under.
