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! :)

Why does a crushed paper fall down faster than a plain paper?

A crushed paper falls faster than a plain paper because the crushed paper has less air resistance due to its folded and crumpled shape. This reduces the surface area exposed to air resistance, allowing it to fall more quickly.


Why does crushed paper occupy more space?

Crushed (crumpled) paper occupies more space than folded paper, and better resists being compressed, because the paper material contains irregular folding against the grain, or strength of the paper. Part of the ball consists of flat surfaces and part as "columns" that resist being further crushed. The paper's relative stiffness will determine the actual difference in compression resistance. Most of the volume of a paper "ball" is "trapped" air spaces between the crumpled folds. A similar use of the strength of the material can be demonstrated by creasing a piece of paper into a fan consisting of multiple pleats, with a cross-section having a sawtooth shape. This pleated sheet will resist deformation (bending) to a much greater extent than the unfolded paper sheet.


Does crushed paper ball float or sink in water?

A crushed paper ball will generally float in water due to its low density and air trapped within its fibers. This creates buoyancy, allowing it to remain on the surface of the water.


A student has two identical sheets of paper He crumples one into a small ball and drops the sheet of paper and the ball of paper off a building at the same time which will reach the ground first?

If we are talking in vaccum then both will have same acceleration.But if there is no vaccum then paper crumbled into a ball will have greater acceleration because air resistance will be less for it.


Why is it difficult to force a crushed paper ball placed at the mouth of a bottle by blowing into it?

It's difficult to force a crushed paper ball into a bottle by blowing into it because as you blow air into the bottle, you are increasing the air pressure within the bottle. This increased pressure pushes against the paper ball and prevents it from being pushed further into the bottle. Additionally, the shape and size of the bottle's opening may also restrict the paper ball from entering.

Can paper be crushed?

Yes, paper can be crushed because it is made of wood fibers that can be broken down under pressure. When paper is crushed, its fibers are compressed and can lose their original shape and size.

Will paper or felt fall to the ground first?

Try it. It probably depends on the size of the pieces you use.


Why do paper aeroplanes fly in the air?

paper aeroplanes flies in air because they less resist the air. For example- if you drop a heavy object and a paper from same height, the heavy object reaches first to ground and the paper will reach ground after the object. Similarly, paper plane flies for some time in air then it comes down.
