Answer:
Viscosity
Explanation:
The viscosity of the liquid is the independent variable. The flow rate is the dependent variable in this hypothesis.
The statement given is called the hypothesis. It is a form of scientific guess into a phenomenon.
- An independent variable is the cause.
- A dependent variable is the effect produced.
- In this hypothesis, the cause of the various flow rate of the liquid is the viscosity.
- It is therefore the independent variable.
- The flow rate is the dependent variable.
