Answer 1

If one astronaut used more force, then that one would be faster than the other. The independent variable is force. The dependent variable is speed.

Step-by-step explanation:

Force is what is to be changed. Speed is what is being measured.

IV = Changed/factor DV=Measured/Changes by factor
