What is an independent variable in an expirement?

The independent variable in an experiment is the variable that the experimenter varies or changes. For instance, if I'm studying the effect of the steepness of a ramp with the time it takes a ball to roll down the ramp, I change the steepness of the ramp (the independent variable) and measure the time (the dependent variable). Hope this helps.


Is the speed of a ball a dependent variable?

Yes.


Examples of Dependent and independent variables?

Independent Variables are changes that occur in an experiment that are directly caused by the experimenter (you.)Dependent Variables are changes that occur due toindependent variables.A Controlled Variable is anything else that could influence the dependent variables.


Is a ball symmetrical?

Dependent upon the ball itself.


What are the examples of dependent and independent variables in sports?

1st answerer: Depedent variables: Are variables that depend on the independent variables. Independent variables: Are variables that do not depend on anything. Examples of dependent variables in sports - Baseball: The number of runs scored or a catch or out (basically the batsmen hitting the ball) - this depends on the pitcher actually bowling the bowl, because without the pitcher, there would be no use of the batsmen. Examples of independent variables in sports - Baseball: So, the pitcher is an independent variable - it does not depend on anything, simply pitches. Let's try soccer: Dependent variables: The goalie blocking a shot, or the goalie failing to block a shot. This depends on a player actually kicking the ball towards the net. Independent variables: Therefore if the player did not kick the ball, the goalie's purpose wouldn't exist. The player kicking the ball depends on nothing. Let's take soccer as an algebraic example: 1. Make a equation - Say you are a player at offense, and I am the goalie. For every 3 shots you take, you miss 2. Say you took 19 shots in a match. 2. This means the equation is: (19 x 3)-(19 x 2)=x. x = number of goals you scored. 3. Solve: 57 - 38 = 19. You scored 19 goals. Hope this helped!
