The flat paper has more surface area, allowing it to catch more air and float. The crumpled paper on the other hand, does not, because it doesn't have as much surface area to spread the air out.
Paper of any colour other then white.
Wax paper melts! I Love you! You are so hot!___-----____---( ''/)
Yes, for example if you fold a piece of paper the paper wishes to remain in the folded position.

A piece of notebook paper is not a conductor it is an insulator
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.
When a paper is crumbled, the air resistance it experiences increases due to the irregular shape, causing it to fall more slowly than a flat piece of paper. The increased air resistance creates more drag, slowing down the crumpled paper's descent compared to when it's flat.
Because the crumbled up bit will have less surface area, and with that less air drag. Less drag allows it to reach a higher speed.
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.
The main forces acting on a falling piece of paper are gravity, which pulls the paper downward towards the ground, and air resistance, which pushes against the paper as it falls. Gravity causes the paper to accelerate towards the ground, while air resistance slows down the speed of the fall.
The acceleration due to gravity is constant for all objects near the Earth's surface, regardless of their mass or size. This means that a heavier rock and a lighter piece of crumbled paper will fall and land at the same time when dropped from the same height.
because the other peice of paper was out stright therefore a larger surface area and the air than gets caught under the paper and the small one dosnt have as much air to get caught on. hope this helps! :)
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.
It depends on the paper. If it is large and flat, then it will almost certainly land after the penny. If it is folded up nice and small and dense, then it will hit the ground at about the same time as the penny.
The number of times you can rip a piece of paper depends on its size and thickness. Generally, a piece of paper can be ripped around 7-10 times before it becomes too small to rip further.
A piece of paper falls slowly to the ground because of air resistance. The large surface area of the paper interacts with air molecules, creating a force that opposes its downward motion, causing it to fall more slowly than heavier objects with less surface area.
When you hold a piece of paper close to your body and then let go, the paper will fall due to gravity. The paper is no longer supported by your hand, so it will be subject to the force of gravity pulling it towards the ground.
