... a. Dependent Variable: affected by changes of one or more variables (e.g., the temperature in a room is affected by the time of day; the temperature is therefore the dependent variable) b. Independent Variable: can be varied independent of other variables (e.g., the time of day is independent of the ...

Magnetic Force on Current Carrying Wires
... current flowing through the wire, and curls around the wire according to the right-handrule. He also demonstrated that two current-carrying wires will attract or repel each other depending on the relative directions of current. Such an experiment, of which ours is a modification, is often called Amp ...

Inquiry 6.1 Gravity`s effect on objects in motion
... It all begins with gravity. Because of gravity, the Sun pulls on the planets, but it also means that the planets pull on the Sun (moons and planets tug at each other too). An orbiting planet exerts a gravitational force that makes the star wobble in a tiny circular (or oval) path. The star’s wobbly ...
