Aerodynamics
A crumpled piece of paper falls faster than an uncrumpled paper due to its shape. The crumpled paper has more air resistance, meaning it will accelerate faster towards the ground compared to the flat paper. The crumpled paper falls in a more streamlined and compact manner, reducing air resistance and allowing it to fall faster.
A crumpled sheet of paper falls faster because of its irregular shape, creating more air resistance compared to a flat sheet. The increased air resistance causes the crumpled sheet to fall faster as it experiences a greater downward force due to gravity.
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.
A crumpled piece of paper falls faster than a flat piece due to air resistance. The crumpled paper has a smaller surface area exposed to air compared to the flat paper, reducing the force of air resistance acting on it. This allows the crumpled paper to accelerate faster towards the ground.
A crumpled ball of paper has a smaller surface area compared to a flat sheet, leading to less air resistance and allowing it to fall faster. The crumpled ball also has more weight concentrated in a smaller area, increasing its momentum.

A crumpled piece of paper has irregular air pockets and less surface area, causing it to fall faster due to reduced air resistance compared to a flat sheet of paper. The crumpled paper also experiences irregular air flow, creating more turbulence that helps it descend faster.
Assuming that both pieces of paper weigh the same, a crumpled piece falls faster in the presence of an atmosphere. In a vacuum, they would fall at the same speed due to the lack of wind resistence.
A crumpled paper ball has a smaller surface area compared to a flat sheet of paper, which increases air resistance and slows down its fall. The crumpled ball also has more internal air resistance, which further hinders its fall speed.
False, the gravity on the sheet of paper is the same regardless of its shape. However the crumpled sheet has less air resistance than the flat sheet allowing it to fall faster.
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.
This is a classic question. In a vacuum, both the the coin and the crumpled paper fall at the same rate due to the absence of air resistance.(Their acceleration being the same) However, in air, the relative air resistance on the paper is greater than on the coin.(relative, because the coin and the paper do not have the same mass, so the proportion of air resistance as compared to weight is the one relevant) So the acceleration of the paper decreases to zero more rapidly than the coin.(it will decrease to zero provided the objects are released from a sufficiently high point from the earth's surface). Thus, the coin will fall faster in air.
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.
