Why is it that a cat that accidentally falls from the top of a 50 -story building hits the ground no faster than if it falls from the 20th story?
Cats have a unique ability to spread their bodies out during a fall, which increases air resistance and slows their descent. This is known as the "cat righting reflex," allowing them to adjust their position mid-fall. As a result, when they fall from significant heights, they reach terminal velocity at a lower speed than larger animals, meaning they hit the ground with a similar force regardless of whether they fall from the 20th or 50th story. Thus, they often survive high falls with relatively minor injuries.

What makes an object move faster and faster as it approaches the ground?
An object accelerates as it falls towards the ground due to the force of gravity acting on it. The object gains speed because gravity causes a constant acceleration towards the center of the Earth, increasing its velocity as it gets closer to the ground.

Why does a crampled piece of paper fall faster than a uncrampled paper?
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.
