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.

If you parachuted on the moon and earth which one will you fall faster on?

you will fall faster on the earth because earth has a higher gravity


Why does a paper fall differently on the moon than on earth?

because of gravity. the paper will not actually fall onto the moon but rise up. earth has 10.0n of gravity and the moon has much less, so it wont fall but rise.


How objects fall on Earth and on the moon?

Objects fall faster to the earth, then compared to the moon, it is due to the different power of gravity on the the earth and moon.


Why does a crampled piece of paper fall faster than a uncrampled paper?

It accelerates faster because it has less air resistance.

No. Both will accelerate at about 1.6 meters per second square.


What falls faster a crumpled ball of paper or a flat sheet of paper?

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.


Do paper gyrocopters fall faster when the amount of weight is increased on the bottom?

No. All matter falls at the same rate.


How much faster does a crumpled paper fall than a flat sheet show a video?

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.
