Why does a flat piece of paper fall slower than a crumbled piece of paper?
A flat piece of paper has a larger surface area, creating friction with the air, or more air resistance. There is more air surrounding the piece of paper, and this slows it down. A crumpled piece of paper has less surface area to create friction, meaning less air resistance. This causes it to fall faster.
Why does a crumbled piece of paper hit the ground before a flat piece of paper?
The flat paper has more surface area, allowing it to catch more air and float. The crumpled paper on the other hand, does not, because it doesn't have as much surface area to spread the air out.
