What graph axis does each variable from above go on?
X is horisontal Y is vertical
What is a dependent variable that is in an experiment?
The independent variable in the experiment is the variable that occurs on its own and does not need anything for it to change, this that is why it is Independent e.g. years, time etc So the Dependant variable is the variable that relies on the independent variable to change and is normally represented on the Y axis. For example, if you had a graph that showed the amount of miles a car travelled over a certain time, the time is always going on and wont stop so its independent. The miles travelled depended upon the time, if the time did not go on the amount of miles travelled also couldn't go on, so it was dependant on the time to change for it to change. So it is the dependant variable.
What vaiable goes on the y axis and what direction does it go in?
Y is the response variable and it goes on the vertical axis.
Would the 'year' go on the x axis?
Perhaps. The x-axis is where you put the variable that you change. The y-axis is where the second variable which depends upon the first would go. If you are recording a measurement that changes every year (e.g. populations of frogs), the x-axis would be the suitable for the year because that is the variable which changes. The population of the frogs is different depending on the year. If you were measuring the year of birth of a distribution of people, the year would go on the y-axis. The year depends upon which person you choose.
How to find the fraction of the rope that can hang over the edge of the table before it begins to slip with the coefficient of static friction?
You are going to have to make a bunch of assumptions and simplifications. If you look at a real rope hanging over the edge of a real table you will see that , due to the fact that the rope has some stiffness, it does not make contact with the tabletop near the edge (or at least the contact pressure is less there) and the contact pressure at the edge can be rather high.I will not go through the calculations (I've forgotten a lot of my "Statics" unfortunately).
Where does the manipulated variable go on a graph?
The independent variable is usually on the bottom, running horizontally. The dependent variable is usually vertical, on the left of the graph.
Where does the dependent variable always go on the graph?
dependent variable always go on y.axis on the graph.
On a graph where does the independent variable go?
Usually on the horizontal axis.
Where does the independent variable go a graph?
In principle, wherever you want. However, it is customary to place the independent variable on the horizontal axis, and the dependent variable on the vertical axis.
Where does the independent data go on a graph?
The independent variable goes on the x-axis while the dependent variable goes on the y-axis. :)
What graph axis does each variable from above go on?
X is horisontal Y is vertical
How many 1 millimeter squares are in a sheet of a4 graph paper that measures 210 mm by 297 mm?
There are 62370 square millimetres. However, on a graph paper, the graph grid does not go from edge to edge of the paper, so the graphing area is 51300 square mm.
What goes on the x axis of a graph?
Any variable that you like. If you have one independent variable and one dependent, then by convention, the independent one would go on the x-axis.
Does a line graph show the relationship between three variables?
a simple 2d xy line graph has only the possibility for 2 different variables (x and y). for a 3 variable graph you would have to go into a 3d xyz graph with each variable as x, y and z. it is possible to fit a line to this but for an easier analysis it is better to analyse the variables in pairs.
When does the graph of a line go down to the right?
Amongst polynomial graphs, it is when the coefficient of the highest power of the variable (x) is negative.
What is the difference between a manipulated variable and a responding variable in a controlled experiment?
A variable is something which can change, that is have different values.The proper scientific terms for these are: Dependent and Independent variable. The independent variable is the thing that you vary during an experiment. The dependent variable is what changes as a result of that manipulation.A manipulated variable is the variable which you deliberately alter the value of. So, you will know the values of this variable before you do the experiment. This variable is also called the independent variable.A responding variable is the variable which you have to measure to get your results. So, you do not know the values of this variable until you measure it. This is also called the dependent variable.For example, to find out if your heart rate depends on exercise, you could do different amounts of exercise (the manipulated variable) and measure the heart rate (the responding variable).The above answer is well written, so I will just add a couple of examples.The standard linear equation is defined as 'y = mx + b'. y = 4x + 10, for example, could be charted on a Cartesian coordinates graph as a straight line that has a slope of 4 and a y-intercept of 10. In such linear equations, x would be described as the manipulated, or independent variable, while y would be the responding, or dependent variable.In another example suppose you are traveling in a car at 50 miles per hour. How far would you go if you traveled three hours? In this example, x would be the number of hours traveled, and y would be the total distance traveled in miles. The equation would be y = 50x. In this equation, x is the independent variable, and y is the dependent variable. By substituting 3 for x (because the question asked how far would you go in three hours), we can calculate that you would travel 150 miles. So the distance you travel (y) depends upon how long you traveled (x).
What axis does temperature go on?
Whichever axis you like. To some extent it depends on whether temperature is the independent or the dependent variable. If the graph is of the temperature of some food when it has been in an over for different lengths of time, then the independent variable is the time and the temperature should be on the vertical axis. However, if the graph is of the temperature of the same food and the number of bacteria present in it, then the temperature is the independent variable and should be on the horizontal axis.
