Whats the independent variable of the lava lamp
what is the controlled variable in a homemade lava lamp
The independent variable is the heat of the light bulb, the dependent variable is the heat absorbed by the wax substance (or other convective liquid) which makes the substances in the lamp move due to density convection.
it has this wax called hydromonic substance that make the lava move
the homemade lava lamp is a mixture of oil and water as oil and water are insoluble in each other . we choose oil and water because they both have very same density .
A lava lamp, however made, is an object, and so the idea of an hypothesis is not applicable. You use an hypothesis in an investigation, which is a process.
