stone is faster than paper because it has more mass so more gravity include on it
Between paper and plastic, paper burns faster. Paper is organic and catches fire easily while plastic takes a bit longer to even catch fire.
A flat one because air can get to it easier.
Cardboard burns faster than a stack of paper because the cardboard has air channels built into it.
Depending the on the weight of paper it can burn faster than clothe. Both clothe and paper have different density and that effects how fast something burns.
A single paper burn faster.

Well because the paper is flat and when you crumple it, it is changing and getting wrinkly and in a crumpled form,
A tightly crumpled ball of foil might sink in water because it's density is greater than water. When foil is flat it's density is less than water and it will float.
The wax paper is hydrophobic.
Take a makeup mirror, and look at yourself in the mirror. Then, rotate that mirror by about 10 degrees. What do you see happen to the image in the mirror? Now, take a ball of foil and examine its surface closely. The light reflects off each small area in a different direction. As with a mirror, the light rays are reflected back in parallel from the polished side of aluminum foil. But when it is crumpled, the rays reflect in many directions from the angular facets.
Surface tension attracts water molecules inward.
The ball presents less Surface Area to the air than a flat sheet. So, there is less air resistance when a thin piece of paper is crumpled into a ball.
Assuming that both pieces of paper weigh the same, a crumpled piece falls faster in the presence of an atmosphere. In a vacuum, they would fall at the same speed due to the lack of wind resistence.
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.
Crumpled.
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.
Because there is less surface area on the crumbled piece of paper, there is less area upon which the force of friction (air resistance) may act. There is more surface area on the normal piece of paper, which allows friction to act over a greater area on the paper. More air resistance causes the flat piece to fall slower.
Less air resistance.
If the paper isn't crumpled, it's obviously flat making it lighter, but if it's crumpled, it has more mass/weight allowing it to drop faster. It falls slower b/c of air resistance, it still weighs the same amout but a flat peice of paper has air working against it. The mass/weight doesnt change. If you ball your hand up it still weighs the same as it did when it was straightened out its only changed in physical apperence.

Since their is more room for the air to "grab onto" the paper, it has more air resistance then a crumpled up paper. Hoped this helped!! :D
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.
