If your manipulated variable causes a change what is the change called?
A Dependent Variable!
Things that can change in an experiment are called?
A variable.
Heat which causes a change in temperature of substanceis called?
Heat which causes a change in temperature of substance is called specific heat.
What is the variable that responds to the variable being changed by the scientist?
Usually this is called the DEPENDENT VARIABLE (DV, aka outcome, criterion...). The scientist manipulates the independent variable and it is their HOPE that the dependent variable will change in response.
What is the variable called that we plot on the x axis?
It is called the x-variable. It can be the independent variable but there may be no independent variable.
If your manipulated variable causes a change what is the change called?
A Dependent Variable!
A variable that causes change in another variable is called what?
If x causes changes in y, for example 23x3 =y then x is the independent variable and y is the dependent variable.
Why does the dependent variable change as the independent variable changes into a linear relationship?
The independent variable is the variable that you change and manipulate in an equation. This causes the dependant variable to change.
What are independent and dependent variables?
The independent variable is also called an experimental variable. It is the variable being manipulated in the experiment in order to show the effect on the dependent variable. The dependent variable is also called the response variable. It is the variable being observed in the experiment. A change in the independent variable is what causes the change (if any) in the dependent variable, which is the purpose of the experiment.
What is the term for a variable that causes something else to change in an experiment?
an independent variable
What causes change in a dependent variable?
The dependent variable is dependent on the independent variable, so when the independent variable changes, so does the dependent variable.
Variable that does not change called?
independent variable
The factor that may change in response to the manipulated variable is called the?
controlled variable
What is a excitation variable?
A variable that causes change in the output of a system. In a RC circuit, for example, the input V is the excitation variable
What a variable that does not change in an experiment is called a constant?
Constant variable
Is a line graph best used when one variable causes another variable to change in value?
Sometimes
What kind of variable causes the dependent to change?
The independent variable, because it isn't affected by the other factors.
