There is a special lightweight kind of paper called onionskin, that used to be popular for sending airmail because the cost per ounce of sending airmail was very high. However, at the present time it is so easy to send messages by email that there isn't a lot of demand for onionskin anymore.

How does light entering your eye become an image you see?

When light enters your eye, it passes through the cornea, pupil, and lens, which focus the light onto the retina at the back of the eye. The retina contains light-sensitive cells called photoreceptors that convert the light into electrical signals. These signals are then sent to the brain through the optic nerve, where they are processed and interpreted as the images you see.

Why when put a drop of oil on paper the paper will be transparent?

Paper, while a solid material, is absorbent. It will absorb water, so it becomes transparent until it dries. Oil is a liquid that paper will absorb, only the oil does not dry in the paper. Therefore, the paper remains transparent until the oil dries. It is the same principle that secret letters are written an sent. A material that dries transparent on paper will be visible under light.

How do you load the paper in fax machine?

1) Open the rear cover (top of machine). 2. Install paper with sheet pointing to front of machine. Carefully feed paper into and thru slot between metal ribs and plastic feed slot (it is very small, so find it by looking for light thru the slot). 3. Shut cover, and paper should feed about a 1/2 page thru and cut it off automatically. Note: If paper starts jamming or shuddering as the paper feeds, you have either installed the paper backwards, or you have fed the paper thru the wrong slot (there are actually two openings, and the larger more obvious opening is the wrong one).
