How does friction affect a flat sheet of paper f alling through air?
Friction pushes on the paper causing it to flutter down instead of falling down smoothly. The amount of surface area also plays a big factor, and so does the mass of the piece of paper.
Why does wax paper have less friction?
less friction then what?
Does wax paper have friction?
No, wax paper has very little friction. The wax is quite slippery, especially when heated.
Does sand paper reduce friction?
sand paper increases friction, that is to say that it is harder to slide something on sand paper than it is on a smooth surface.
Is friction boon or bane?
friction is 99% boon because you can't imagine a world without it. without friction, you cannot write on paper as the ink will not stick to paper. if you kick a ball, it will never come to rest. you cannot walk without it and so on. it is 1% bane because at times, it causes hindrances in machinery which produces a lot of heating effect.

What has more friction wax paper or wood?
Wood has more friction indeed
Why does an eraser feel warm when rub it against a piece of paper as you use it to erase some writing?
There is friction between the eraser and the paper.:)
What force makes paper float when it is falling?
It is caused by the air pressure under the falling paper. It is referred to as the air resistance.
What are the causes of fluid friction?
Fluids can be air or liquids when referring to fluid friction. A paper airplane flying through air is acted on my by friction of the atmosphere. A submarine or ship moving below or above the sea is affected by the fluid friction of water. This because matter rubbing against matter cannot do so without resistance from friction.
How do you use friction in sentence?
I made friction by rubbing the sand paper against the cabinet.
