Depends on which one is dropped first. If they are both dropped at the same time, they will both reach the ground at the same time.

Why does a coin and a piece of paper fall differently in vacuum then in air?

In a vacuum, there is no drag, i.e. air resistance, so the coin and the piece of paper will fall the same way in a vacuum, whereas in air, the paper will flutter down while the coin will have minimal impediment due to its drag coefficient being far less than that of paper.


What will fall from the same height first. ball or paper?

In a vacuum, both a ball and a piece of paper will fall at the same rate and hit the ground at the same time because they are subject to the same gravitational acceleration. However, in reality, the paper may experience more air resistance and fall more slowly than the ball.


If you drop a pape and a bouncy ball which will fall first?

the sheet of paper,because it has more surface area


If a paper is placed above a book and they're drop from a certain height why is it that while falling the paper still remains in contact with the book and it lands still in contact with the book?

If the paper gets away from the book, it creates a vacuum which will suck the paper back against the book. Only if there is a side flow can the "vacuum" be compensated as the paper slowly gets away. In free fall, the fall itself creates a vacuum behind the falling object (book + paper), so that no air is available to compensate the vacuum created by separating book and paper - thus the paper remains sticked. (2 cents assumption)


Given this the amount of time it would take the stone to fall in air compared to in a vacuum would be what?

longer because the stone has less kinetic energy


If a stone and a pencil are dropped simultaneously in vacuum fron the same height which of two will reach the ground first?

In vacuum, both the stone and the pencil would fall at the same rate due to gravity and there would be no air resistance to affect their acceleration. Therefore, both the stone and the pencil would reach the ground at the same time.


What would fall faster a feather or a piece of paper?

In a vacuum, a feather and a piece of paper would fall at the same rate due to gravity. However, in Earth's atmosphere, the feather would fall more slowly due to air resistance.


Would a feather fall faster than a stone in a vacuum?

In a vacuum, both the feather and the stone would fall at the same rate due to the absence of air resistance. This is known as the principle of equivalence, where all objects fall at the same rate regardless of their mass.


Why does paper fall faster on the moon?

Faster than on Earth? The reason it falls slowly on Earth is because of air resistance. You can also make it fall quickly on Earth if you make it fall within a vacuum chamber.


What will fall first a book or a notebook?

Assuming they are both dropped from the same height in a vacuum, they would fall at the same rate and hit the ground simultaneously, as their mass and size do not affect their rate of falling in a vacuum.


Does paper fall faster than cloth?

If all wind was eliminated, they would both fall at the same time because gravity has a constant increasing rate of pull, not matter how heavy the object might be. Though, because paper is lighter than cloth, and is easily toiled by wind, cloth would fall faster than paper, because paper is affected by wind more than cloth is. The answer could either way.


Which would fall with greater acceleration in a vauum a leaf or stone?

In a vacuum, both the leaf and the stone would fall with the same acceleration, as they would be subject only to the force of gravity. This is because the acceleration due to gravity is constant regardless of an object's mass.
