1 Experiments search for cause and effect relationships in nature.

2 These changing quantities are called variables.

3 Does your grade depend on how much time you spend on your work?

4 – The dependent variable depends on other factors (how much you studied, effort, etc.)

5 Does your grade depend on how much time you spend on your work? – The dependent variable depends on other factors (how much you studied, effort, etc.) – Independent variable is the one you have control over (how much you studied).

6 Does your grade depend on how much time you spend on your work? – The dependent variable depends on other factors (how much you studied, effort, etc.) – Independent variable is the one you have control over (how much you studied). You have control over your grades.

7 Variable: Changing quantity of something. – -

8 Variable: Changing quantity of something. – -

9 Variable: Changing quantity of something. – -

10 Independent: (Change) The variable you have control over, what you can choose and manipulate.

13 Dependent: (Observe) What you measure in the experiment and what is affected during the experiment.

14 Control: (Same) Quantities that a scientist wants to remain constant so it’s a fair test.

67 A student wants to find out if an egg will crush more easily standing straight-up or on its side. The student creates a chamber that allows weights to be placed on a board that lies on top of the egg. The student places weights in grams on the board with an egg standing straight, and then on its side. The student records the total weight that was on the board when the egg crushed. Problem? = What side of the egg is strongest? Independent Variable = Egg straight or on side. Dependent Variable = Weights in grams Control = Similar brand of egg, similar size, same temp, everything is the same.
