  1. Variables Bellringer Learning Target 5

  2. In each of the situations below, list which is the INDEPENDENT and DEPENDENT variable. Students are standing in the hallway equal distances from one another measuring the speed at which a ball rolls past them. Independent: student spacing Dependent: speed of ball

  3. Independent? Dependent? An ice cube is placed in a graduated cylinder and allowed to melt over time. Readings of the volume are taken every minute Independent: time of readings (every 1min) Dependent: volume of water in cylinder

  4. Independent? Dependent? A coach is timing how long it takes each of his athletes to run 100m, as they cover the distance several times as they round the track (Note: the track’s total distance is 400m) Independent: distance when times (100m) Dependent: time it takes to run 100m

  5. Independent? Dependent? A series of small weights, increasing in size by ½ a kilogram, are each placed on a rubber band. The rubber band’s length increases as the weight placed on it increases. Independent: mass of weights (1/2 kg increments) Dependent: length of rubber band

  6. Independent? Dependent? Given the following data, graph it on the line graph in the space below. Indicate on the graph which axis represents the dependent variable and independent variable. Independent Dependent
