Independent and Dependent Variables
dependent = y values, independent = x values
The period of the pendulum is dependent on the length of the pendulum to the center of mass, and independent from the actual mass.The weight, or mass of the pendulum is only related to momentum, but not speed.Ignoring wind resistance, the speed of the fall of objects is dependent on the acceleration factor due to gravity, 9.8 m/s/s which is independent of the actual weight of the objects.
The pendulum frequency is dependent upon the length of the pendulum. The torque is the turning force of the pendulum.
-- friction in the pivot -- air moving past the pendulum -- the effective length of the pendulum -- the local acceleration of gravity
Galileo's pendulum experiment showed that the period of the swing is independent of the amplitude (size) of the swing. So the independent variable is the size of the swing, and the dependent variable is the period. The experiment showed there was no dependence, for small swings anyway. The experiment led to the use of the pendulum in clocks.
Independent and dependent are types of variables. These variables are used mostly in science and math. When using independent variables you can control them dependent variables you cannot.
the independent variable controls the dependent variables
Every time the independent variables change, the dependent variables change.Dependent variables cannot change if the independent variables didn't change.
Independent variables are those that you change in an experiment. Dependent variables are the ones that you measure in an experiment. Dependent variables are influenced by the independent variables that you change, so they are dependent upon the independent variable. Generally, experiments should have only one independent variable.
Dependent variable change and independent variables do not change.
The test variable (independent variable) controls the outcome variable (dependent variable).
Independent variables are the input value of a function (usually x) and dependent variables are the output value of the function (usually y).
One is dependent and one is independent
Independent changes; the dependent variable is what you will measure.
Independent variables are variables that can be changed in an experiment, while dependent variables are variables that change as a result of an experiment. In other words, independent variables are what you change, and dependent variables are the results of the experiment.
