∙ 13y agoInterestingly, it is often called the manipulated variable, though it is also called the independent variable and sometimes other names.
Independent variable is what you, the experimenter, change or enacts in order to do your experiment
Not necessarily. It may be one that the experimenter has no control over.
the variable
In an experiment, the independent variable is the variable that is manipulated by the experimenter in order to observe and measure how it affects the dependent variable. For example, an experiment in which the experimenter wants to observe and measure the effect of force on the acceleration of an object, force would be the independent variable and acceleration would be the dependent variable. The experimenter would apply different amounts of force to an object, and then observe and record the object's acceleration with each amount of force. On a graph, the independent variable would be on the x-axis, and the dependent variable would be on the y-axis.
The variable that is changed by the experimenter in an experiment is called the independent variable. This variable is manipulated or controlled by the experimenter in order to observe its effect on another variable, known as the dependent variable.
The variable adjusted by the experimenter is called the independent variable. This is the variable that is purposely manipulated or changed in an experiment to observe its effect on the dependent variable. The independent variable is under the control of the experimenter.
The variable that is intentionally manipulated or changed by the experimenter is called the independent variable.
An independent variable is a factor that the experimenter controls or changes in an experiment. It is manipulated to observe its effect on the dependent variable.
Independent variable. This variable is manipulated by the experimenter to observe its effect on the dependent variable.
Independent variable (Manipulated Variable) is a variable that is purposefully changed by the experimenter (the person who is doing the experiment) *the first part of the experiment question is the independent variable.
The variable that is intentionally changed in an experiment is called the independent variable. This variable is manipulated by the experimenter to observe its effects on the dependent variable, which is the outcome being measured.
A manipulated variable is the thing that can be changed in an experiment. example; your trying to see what paper towel would be more absorbant, your manipulated viariable would be either the type of paper towel you use or the liquid you use to test the absorbancy.
The manipulated variable is the independent variable, which is m in this case. This variable is deliberately changed by the experimenter to observe its effect on the dependent variable, n.
The independent variable is the thing experimenter deliberately changes while observing in a scientific experiment. This variable is manipulated to observe its effect on the dependent variable, which is the outcome being measured.
The manipulated variable in an experiment with a water rocket could be the amount of water or air pressure used to launch the rocket. This variable is intentionally changed by the experimenter to observe its effect on the rocket's performance.
The variable that is intentionally manipulated or changed by the experimenter is called the independent variable.
