Question

what is the dependent variable?

the type of ball
the drop height of the ball
the bounce height of the ball
the temperature of the ball

Answer 1

Hii there!

Okay so the independent variable is the one that will not be affected by the other variables but is in turn what we use to affect the others. In this experiment, the independent variable is the temperature of the ball given that this value does not depend on any of the other variables of the experiment.

Thus, your answer will be D. the temperature of the ball.
