Why would a flat sheet of paper and a wad of paperwith the same mass not fall through the air at the same rate?
The flat sheet of paper would encounter more air resistance than the wadded sheet of paper would.
When dropped from the same height why does a flat sheet of paper fall slowly than a crumppled sheet of paper?
because it is more lighter than the crumpled one. and its density is much lighter.
Is it true or false when a crumpled piece of paper falls to the ground more quickly than a flat piece of paper becauseof gravity?
False, the gravity on the sheet of paper is the same regardless of its shape. However the crumpled sheet has less air resistance than the flat sheet allowing it to fall faster.
When dropped from the same height why does a flat sheet of paper fall slowly than the same sheet when it is tightly crumpled into a ball?
Because when the sheet of paper is flat, it acts like a parachute, and collects much more air resistance. The balled-up piece of paper has much less surface area, so can collect much less air resistance, making it fall faster.
Assume that a sheet of paper is 0.15mm thick If you folded the sheet of paper in Half 50 times how high would the stack of paper reach?
you can flod a sheet paper 6 times
What weighs more in mass a sheet of paper or a feather?
It depends on the size of the sheet of paper and the size of the feather. The only way to determine whether a particular sheet of paper has more mass than a particular feather is to compare them using a method that objectively measures mass. Using an accurate laboratory scale would be the easiest way to make this determination.
Which weights more 1kg of feather or 1kg of iron?
They both weigh the same = 1KgThe answer is there in your question
What weights more a pound of feather or a pund of led?
Assuming you meant pound of lead, they weigh the same.
Does it cost more for electronic or paper sheet music?
It costs a little bit more for paper sheet music, because of the production costs associated with making it.

The flat sheet of paper would encounter more air resistance than the wadded sheet of paper would.
How long is an A4 sheet of paper?
An A4 sheet measures 210 x 297 mm. An A4 sheet of paper is the more common business and school size paper in most of the world, including Europe, whereas the 8½ x 11 inch sheet of paper is the more common business size in the USA. A4 is a little taller and narrower than a US 8½ by 11 inch sheet.
Is a heavy weight more experienced than feather weights?
no, a heavyweight is someone who weighs more than 200 pounds hence the name "heavy"weight.
How many times can you fold a sheet of notebook paper?
You can fold a sheet of notebook paper 6 or 7 times but no more.♥adrianna Nicole lockwood wrote this♥
When dropped from the same height why does a flat sheet of paper fall slowly than a crumppled sheet of paper?
because it is more lighter than the crumpled one. and its density is much lighter.
Which weighs more 125 pounds of cement or 60 kilograms of feather?
Trick question? The 60 kilograms (a little more than 132 pounds) of feathers weigh more!
When dropped from the same height why does a flat sheet of paper fall more slowly than the same sheet when it is tightly crumpled into a ball?
A Crumpled sheet of paper falls faster than flat sheet because a flat sheet has a relatively greater exposed surface area and hence experiences more resistance from air or the medium in which it travels. Although an upward buoyant force acts on the flat sheet but it is negligible in magnitude and hence can be considered to be zero until and unless the calculations require a very high degree of accuracy such as experimenting with fundamentals of pure sciences.
