The greater the wingspan, the greater the surface area. The greater the surface area, the greater the lift. The greater the lift, the longer flight duration.
Generally, the longer and narrower a plane's wings are, the more efficient they are and the farther they will fly (e.g., the albatross). However, if you force very wide wings to fly at very high speed, they will induce very high drag rates very quickly. It will also impose very high stresses in the wing, which will require imaginative bracing and reinforcing which will add more weight which means you need more power which means a bigger engine... see where this is going?? All airplanes are a collection of compromises, including the paper one in your hand.

How does the wingspan of a paper airplane affects the it flies?
Yes. A wider winspan will make a paper airplane fly farther.
Does the type of paper affect how far an airplane flies?
well some paper can be more heavy than other paper so yes
Can the length of a paper airplanes wingspan make it fly frther?
Yes, the length of a paper airplane's wingspan can affect how far it can fly. A longer wingspan can provide more lift, allowing the plane to stay in the air longer and potentially travel further. However, other factors such as weight distribution and design also play a role in determining how far a paper airplane can fly.
Does a hole affect a paper airplane?
The effect of a hole on a paper airplane would depend on the type of paper airplane the hole is on, and where it is on the aircraft.

Does paper air plane wingspan increases glide distance?
Yes, a larger wingspan generally allows a paper airplane to glide farther because it provides more lift and stability. A longer wingspan helps the aircraft stay in the air longer by generating more airflow over the wings. Additionally, a larger wingspan can help reduce drag, allowing the paper airplane to fly more efficiently.
Which flies paper airplane or foil airplane?
Paper, because it is much lighter, and a foil airplane will take up much more mass.
Does the type of paper used affect the distance a paper airplane will travel?
no
How does the color of the paper airplane affect the distance?
It dosn't affect the distance.
How does the shape of the wings of a paper airplane affect its flight?
Research shows that for a stunt paper airplane, smaller wings with forward-concentrated weight are optimal. For a glider, make a large wingspan and light, evenly balanced weight. Also, the wider the wings are the easier it will be to gain lift and the more narrower the wings are the harder it will be to stay in the air longer.

Which type of homemade paper airplane flies best?
