What is a constant in a project?
the dependent variable cant change the independent varible, but the independent variable can change the dependent varible. (eg: Bob wants to see if the new Baseball pitching machine throws better fastballs then his friend. The baseball pitching machine(independent) could change a fastball(dependent), but a fastball(dependent) cant change the baseball pitching machine(independent).
How would you compare and contrast liquid water and ice in terms of how definite their shapes and volumes are?
Liquids have a variable shape take the shape of the container. Gases also have a variable shape and take the shape of the container.Liquids have a fixed volume. Gases have a variable volume and fill the container.
How would you compare the brightness of the bulbs as you increase the number of bulbs?
-- If the bulbs are in parallel, then the addition of a bulb has no effect on the brightness of those that were there before. -- If the bulbs are in series, then the addition of a bulb causes the brightness of those that were there before to decrease. (And I wasn't even there when you did the experiment !)
What is a unit to compare loudness?
Decibels can compare loudness
What is a state of control in a experiment?
it is the aspect of the expierment that acts as the control meaing you do nothing to it. i.e if you have 3 people and you test two of them with a drug and give one a placebo yet none of the three knows who is getting what. you then compare the results thus the one you gave the placebo to acts as the control.
How do the independent and dependent variables in an experiment compare?
the independent variable controls the dependent variables
How do the test variables (independent variables) and outcome variables (dependent variables) in an experiment compare?
The test variable (independent variable) controls the outcome variable (dependent variable).
Which term describes a type of independent variable used to compare difference and dependent?
Experiment controlled
What variable is the part of the experiment that is affected by the independent variable that is being tested or the part that is changed by the person doing the experiment?
The variable of the experiment that is being tested or the part that is changed by the person doing the experiment is called the independent variable... Thank you for letting me answer goodbye... ;)
What is a dependent and independent variable?
It depends on what you are looking at. If you want to look at changes in variable Y when a variable X is changed, then X is the independent variable and Y is the dependent. But if you want to look at changes in X which accompany changes in Y, then Y is the independent variable and X is the dependent.
What variable is the part of an experiment that is being tested or the part that is changed by the person doing the experiment?
There are three kinds of variables in an experiment. The independent variable is what you change in the experiment. It is important that you have only one independent variable in your experiment. You would not be able to draw reliable conclusions from the experiment if you altered more than one experimental condition. The dependent variable is what you measure in the experiment. Unlike the independent variable, an experiment can have more than one dependent variable because variations in the independent variable can have many different effects. For example, you might measure length of leaves and weight of roots to assess the growth of radish plants. Dependent variables can include amounts as well as amount data. Such data cannot be measured but is still useful when you describe and compare it.
What is a dependent variable independent variable and a control group?
The independent variable is the thing you change, the dependent variable is the variable that changes because of the independent variable, it could also be referred to as the effect, and the control group is the constant, the thing that stays the same and the variable that you compare your results to.
Compare independent varable and dependent varable?
An "Indepndent Variable" is something in the expieriment that can be changed. And a "Dependent Variable" is something that doesn't change.
Compare dependent variable and independent variables?
well a independent variable is usually the one that is manipulated and is the x axis while the dependent is the one that depends on the independent and is the responding variable and the x-axis!A little saying i use is dry mix/dependent,responding,y axis/manipulated variable,independent,x axis.tale the first letter of all of that and you get dry mix.
What are the 3 scientific variables?
The Independent Variable : It is the ONE thing you plan to be different in the experiment. You decide on what is going to be different BEFORE doing the experiment. Dependent Variable or Outcome Variable : It is the result you compare of measure in the experiment. Controlled Variable : This is the part of the experiment that you DO NOT CHANGE. This is what STAYS THE SAME.
How many variables can a scientist change in an experiment?
Anything that can be changed in any way is a variable. so,,,,,an infinite number. Day, time, heat, light, humidity, speed, what you ate for dinner the Wednesday before you go shopping. So, quite literally, an infinite number. Hope this helps.
How are line bar and circle graphs the same?
The line graph's sole purpose is to portray a trend between the dependent variable and the independent variable. The dependent variable is changed when the independent variable is. The independent variable is the variable that you choose in an experiment. A circle graph is used to divide a specify amount of something (votes, opinions) in to parts. A bar graph is used to express the difference between the information collected in an experiment. This used mainly to compare values, size, or growth. They are all the same because they are made to make the reader get the information. Their sole purpose is to portray information in a time efficient, fast, and good way. They all use number values and are decided in to parts.
