The independent variable is also known as the experimental variable. It is the one variable that is manipulated or allowed to vary. All other variables are kept constant. For example, if you want to determine the relationship between mass and acceleration, you would vary the mass and it would be the independent variable. You would then measure the acceleration that occurs with different masses, which would be the dependent variable.
