A controllable-pitch propeller is a blade whose blade angle may be adjusted to any angle between the low and the high pitch limits.

The variable that is measured in an experiment is the variable?

The Independent/Manipulative variable is the variable that you purposely change, and the Dependent/Responsive variable is the variable that changes as a rest of the Independent variable. You measure the dependent variable to see the effects of the Independent variable.


What is the variable that causes a change in another variable?

An independent variable is the variable that causes a change in another variable, known as the dependent variable. The independent variable is manipulated or controlled in an experiment to observe its effect on the dependent variable.


What is the name of the variable that's used to predict another variable?

The variable that is used to predict another variable is usually called the "independent variable" or the "predictor variable." This variable is manipulated or controlled in an experiment to observe its effect on the outcome variable, which is known as the "dependent variable."


What is a variable called that causes a change in another variable?

A variable that causes a change in another variable is called an independent variable. This variable is manipulated or controlled by the researcher to observe its effect on the dependent variable.


What variable causes an effect?

The independent variable is the variable that is changed or manipulated by the researcher and is hypothesized to cause an effect on the dependent variable. The dependent variable is the variable that is measured in response to the changes in the independent variable.

What are the advantages of using fixed pitch propellers in aircraft design?

Fixed pitch propellers are simpler, lighter, and more cost-effective than variable pitch propellers. They are also easier to maintain and operate, making them a popular choice for smaller aircraft.


How do you fly with a variable pitch propellor?

This is a very general answer to your question. A variable pitch propeller can be turned . If the blades were flat faceing forward they would not do their job. When the blades are turned at a slight angle (the pitch) then they bite into the air and this helps with forward movement. The more pitch the better the blades cut into the air, but if the pitch is to much, then the blades no longer cut into the air and forward motion stops. The blades can be set for reverse pitch which allows a plane to slow down very quickly once it has landed on a runway (this helps to save on the brakes) and can also be used to back a plane up, such as from a boarding gate, or to park a plane.
