If you folded a peice of paper 50 times and the thickness was .1 mm when you started how thick would it be?

It is physically impossible to fold a piece of paper in half more than 8 times. However, assuming you could do it (though it would be easier to cut the pile so far in half and put one half on top of the other), then: After 1 fold the stack has 2 sheets After 2 folds the stack has 4 sheets After 3 folds the stack has 8 sheets After n folds the stack has 2^n sheets After 50 folds the stack will be 2⁵⁰ sheets thick As each sheet is 0.1mm, the stack will be: 2⁵⁰ × 0.1 mm = 112589990684262.4 mm thick = 112589990.6842624 km thick ≈ 1.126 × 10¹¹ m thick


A 12 foot rope is cut into two pieces so that one piece is 3 feet less than twice the length of the other piece how long is each piece?

I think 9 and 3... no, its 5 and 7.


Why is the quotient larger than the dividend in a fraction?

Because you can take a piece of an apple out of a bag of apples more times than the number of whole apples in the bag.


Saima cut a sheet into 10 piecesThen she took one of the pieces and cut it into 10 pieces alsoShe repeated this twice moreHow many pieces of paper did she have in the end?

Well, Saima started with 1 sheet, cut it into 10 pieces, then cut one of those pieces into 10 more pieces, and repeated this process twice more. So, in the end, she would have a total of 1 + 10 + 1010 + 1010*10 pieces of paper, which equals 1111 pieces of paper. Hope you have enough space to store all that!


Does a pencil or a paper clip have more mass?

A pencil has more mass than a paper clip no matter how big the pencil is.

Can paper be folded in half more than 7 times?

In theory, paper can be folded in half more than 7 times, but it becomes increasingly difficult as the number of folds increases. The thickness of the paper and its size are limiting factors that make it practically impossible to fold a standard piece of paper more than 7-8 times.


If a piece of paper is folded 9 times how many sections will there be?

It's physically impossible to fold a piece of paper more than 7 times.


Can a piece of paper be folded more than seven times?

Yes it is possible. But the paper does have to be very big and thinner than an ordinary piece of paper.


Can a piece of square dry paper be folded more than 7 times in half?

No, a piece of square dry paper cannot be folded in half more than seven times due to the exponential increase in thickness and decrease in surface area with each fold. Each fold doubles the thickness of the paper, making it increasingly difficult to fold further. In practice, most people find that they can only fold a standard piece of paper about 6 to 7 times.


If you fold paper 9 times how many sections will you get?

Impossible question to answer. No piece of paper can be folded more than seven times. Most, no more than 5. Depending on how you fold, anywhere from 10 to 512 with the limitation implied above.


Why can't a sheet of paper be folded more than eight times?

It is hard to explain, but it basically amounts to the size to fold ratio. A large enough, thin enough, sheet of paper can be folded more than eight times, but it has to be the size of a football field in order to do it. 128 layers of paper is a lot to fold in half to get to 256!


How many times can you fold a square?

A square paper can not be folded more than seven times.


How many times you can fold a square paper?

It's theoretically impossible to fold a standard piece of paper more than seven to eight times due to physical constraints. As the number of folds increases, the thickness of the paper grows exponentially, making it impossible to fold any further.


What is the world record for most times to fold a paper?

Oh, dude, the world record for folding a paper in half is like 12 times. Yeah, that's right, 12! I mean, who has time to fold a piece of paper more than that anyway? It's not like we're trying to set a record here, right?


When you fold a piece of paper the crease in the paper represents a?

The crease in a folded piece of paper represents a structural weakness due to the compression occurring at that point. The fibers in the paper become more condensed and stretched along the crease, making it more prone to tearing or breaking than the rest of the sheet.


Can you fold a piece of paper more than 7 times?

Yes. You can. If you fold it, turn 90 degrees and fold it again. I saw it on myth busters. They folded a paper the size of a football field 11 times. with the help from NASA. But with a regular 11x8 paper, i don't think it is possible.


Did a high-school graduate solve the paper-folding problem by folding a piece of paper twelve times?

Think about it, a single piece of paper that is folded 12 times would end up being 2 raised to the 11th power in thickness. It's one of those problems that seems easy, but in reality doesn't make sense. Within just a few folds, you aren't really "folding" the paper any more, it's more like "bending" it, and besides, the original piece of paper would need to be quite large so that you could keep folding it. IN ADDITION: If you fold a piece of paper 7 times, you have expended the area that you have to fold. So unless you have supernatural abilities, you cannot make more folds, if you have any more, tell me.
