Science Buddies: "Ask an Expert"

I am in 8th grade geometry, but doing this project for science. I was wondering what a good independent and dependent variable would be to test?

Hi!

That is great you are wanting to tackle an advanced subject for your 8th grade science project.

I would like some more information from you before answering your question. First, I just joined the Ask an Expert forum as an Expert and so I am just now looking around to see if there are any questions I can help answer or guidance to offer. I see that you posted this a couple of weeks ago. Are you still working on this project, or did you decide on a different one?

If you are still wanting to do this project, have you decided on where you will be standing and which object is going to be your far-away fixed object, and which object you are wanting to measure the distance of using Parallax?
