invariables
standards
permanents
constants
4
The study of how things move.

5
An experiment in which all factors are held constant except for the independent variable.
independent experiment
controlled experiment
complete experiment
experimental experiment
6
A change in an object’s position relative to a reference point.

velocity
acceleration
speed
7
The factor you are testing for in an experiment.
observable variable

speed = distance - time
speed = distance x time
