Why does decreasing the surface area of a piece of paper decrease its air resistance when it is dropped in the air?

Chocolates are delicious!
How does surface area effect the time taken for a piece of paper to fall to the ground?
Air resistance is the key. In a vacuum a piece of paper and a brick, dropped at the same time, will reach the ground at the same time. When atmosphere is added to the mix the papers area figures in when and where the paper will land. The bigger it is the more air it will capture and its' decent will be slowed.
Why does a flat piece of paper fall slower than a crumbled piece of paper?
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.

by taKING A PIECE of paper and drawing on it with a pencil and that's how

How do you use the word soggy in a sentence?
The piece of paper was soggy after he accidentally dropped it in a puddle.
Why would a crumpled piece of paper hit the ground before a flat piece of paper?
Because a flat piece of paper has a larger surface area and therefore more wind resistance. But in a crumbled piece of paper the wind resistance is less.

Why does a crumpled piece of paper fall faster than a flat piece of paper?
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.
What is a symbolic representation of all or part of the earths surface on a flat piece of paper?
The two dimensional representation of the Earth's surface on piece of paper is called a map. Maps can show an area in great detail or in very broad outlines.
Can you glue cpvc without primer?
You should scratch the surface or use a piece of sand paper on it to break the surface coating.
