the paper slows down due to gravity, and friction, there are small hills and valleys that are not seen.
friction
Friction is the force that causes a marble to slow down and eventually stop when rolled along a floor. As the marble moves, it experiences opposing forces from the floor's surface, generating heat and slowing down the marble's motion.
The best way to slow down a falling piece of paper is to increase air resistance by crumpling the paper or increasing its surface area by attaching a parachute-like object to it. This will create more drag force, slowing down the paper's descent.
Because of friction
maybe i dont know
The rolling coin likely slowed down due to friction between the coin and the floor surface, which creates resistance against its motion. As the coin rolls, the frictional force eventually dissipates its kinetic energy, causing it to slow down and eventually come to a stop.
Wrap it in paper or something this will slow down the evaporation.
Make its surface area larger.
Friction with the material it is pushed across and the gravitational pull of the earth are two factors that can cause the box to slow down. ================================== Gravity does not directly cause the box to slow down, but gravity is indirectly responsible for the existence of the friction force which does.
Friction between the rubber ball and the smooth floor causes it to slow down and eventually stop. The friction converts the ball's kinetic energy into heat and sound energy, gradually reducing its speed until it comes to a halt.
Either your gas pedal is stuck to the floor or you are going downhill.
Objects slow down when you slide them across the floor because of friction. With out it, nothing would ever stop sliding.
