Folding the piece of paper does not change the thickness of the piece of paper.

However, the thickness of the folded paper would be twice that of the original sheet of paper.

If you had a piece of paper that was 0.001 inches thick how tall a pile would it make if it were folded in half 10 times?

If you folded a piece a paper 50 times how tall would it be?

A normal piece of paper is about 0.0038 inches thick. So, if the paper were to be folded 50 times, it would become, essentially, 1,125,899,906,842,624 pieces of paper stacked upon one another. Therefore, you would multiply the above number by 0.0038 and that would be 4278419646001.97 inches or 67,525,562.594 miles of paper. So, a normal 8 1/2 by 11 piece of paper folded 50 times would be 67,525,562.594 miles, which is 141 times the distance the Moon is to the Earth.

If you fold a piece of paper 50 times how thick would it be?

It depends, because the paper could be thicker than others.AnswerThe folded paper would be 1 x (250) times as thick as the original sheet as each fold doubles the thicknessAssuming the initial paper is 1/100 of an inch thick the last fold would make a wad of paper almost 200 million miles thick

If you could fold a piece of paper in half 50 times how thick would it be?

In theory, that peice of paper would be thick enough to accomplish the distance from earth to the moon.=================================as i said...in theory. but hypotheticallyit would just be a normal piece of paper that is 0.02cm thick.=================================Answer #2:The paper would still be the same thickness as it was before you folded it.But you're probably asking for the thickness of the big folded wad. Naturally,that depends on how thick the paper is before you start folding it.You haven't mentioned what kind of paper you'd like to use, so I can't actuallycalculate a thickness. All I can tell you is that whatever the thickness of thepaper is, the final folded form will be 250 = 1,125,899,907,000,000 times as thick(rounded to the nearest million times).20-lb bond, widely used for home printers, varies from about 0.0038 to 0.0045 inch thick. If I use 0.004 inch for convenience, and multiply it by the rounded number above, I get(0.004 in) x 250 = 4.5 x 1012 in = 3.8 x 1011 ft = 71 million miles, rounded,or just under 298 times the distance to the moon.(That's if you're careful to squeeze out all the air between the layers after you fold it.)

How thick would be a piece of paper folded 103 times?

Depends how you fold it, but if you fold in such a way that each folding doubles the thickness, that would be 2 to the power 103 times the thickness of a single sheet. (You CAN'T do that with any real paper.)

Is it possible to fold a piece of paper more than seven times?

nope ive tried it :( multiple times....Well, it depends on what you mean. Of course you can fold a piece of paper lots of times. What you can not do is fold a piece of paper in half lots of times.Your typical piece of paper is about 0.1mm thick. Each fold in half doubles the thickness, so by the time you have folded it 7 times it is 2^7*0.1 mm thick, that's 12.8mm, call it 1/2 an inch thick. And by then your piece of paper is rather small. If it started 8 1/2 x 11, it is now 11/8 x 17/8 inches, or about 1 1/2 inches by 2 inches. (ignoring the size of he folds)The next fold would make it 1 inch thick, and the outside of the fold would be a half circle 1/2 inch radius using pi/2 inches of paper, call it 1 1/2 inches. This isn't going to work.


Why would a penny hit the floor before a piece of paper would?

It depends on the paper. If it is large and flat, then it will almost certainly land after the penny. If it is folded up nice and small and dense, then it will hit the ground at about the same time as the penny.


If you have a ream of paper 500 sheets it is 8.5cm thick he wants to stack 10 reams how many meters tall will it be how thick is each piece of paper?

Ten reams of paper, at 8.5 centimetres tall each, would measure 8.5 x 10 = 85 centimetres.Each sheet of paper within a ream would measure 8.5 / 500 = 0.017 centimetres, or 1.7 millimetres.
