Why does decreasing the surface area of a piece of paper decrease its air resistance when it is dropped in the air?
Thanks for the Hairbrush.
How would you reduce the air resistance of an object?
By decreasing the surface area of the surface in direct contact with opposing force of air.. NAMAN By making an object slim, sharp and by moving it against or after the air. \\~OverLordGoldDragon~//
Why does a crumbled piece of paper have less air resistance?
When you crumple a paper you are decreasing the surface area. The less surface area, the less the wind can stop the paper. it also works because you are putting more weight on one area.
What is the effect of increase of temperature on surface tension?
Surface tension decreases as temperature increases.
What is air resistance affected by?
Air resistance is affected by surface area and Shape

What happens to the surface area of a cube when the cube decreases in size?
Surface area also decreases

What factors affect the bounce of a dropped ball?
The factors that affect the bounce of a dropped ball include...... the height from which it is dropped; the force applied to it, if any, when dropped; the acceleration of gravity, which is different depending upon what planet you're on ; the elasticity of the ball; the density of the atmosphere, which affects "air resistance"; and the rigidity and elasticity of the surface on which the ball bounces.
What does alcohol do to surface tension?
it decreases it.
How can friction increased?
Friction increases or decreases based on the surface changes. If a box were sliding down a smooth hill that suddenly becomes quite rough, then friction would increase. It would be the same vice versa for decreasing friction.
What does rubbing alcohol do to surface tension?
it decreases it.
What factors affect a bouncy ball from bouncy?

What happens to surface area of a tire when pressure is increased?
the surface area decreases.
Effect of Temperature on Surface Tension?
surface tension decreases with the increase of temperature
