Trial and error. There are many different ways to make a paper aeroplane - some may be better than others.
A paper airplane by ken Blackburn is the longest to stay aloftin 27.9 secs. but a walkalong glider flies long too but it is not a paper airplane because you still need to cut tape and fold.
about 12 seconds, if the paper airplane can fly it would stay up longer
just throw it properly and make a very big one
The kind of paper that makes a paper airplane stay in the air the longest is blank paper because blank paper has the right amount of heaviness to make it stable.In CNN Student News,blank paper flew the greatest and longest time and distance.
The peice of paper compares to the paper airplane because they both have the same mass. Whether a paper is flat,folded in half or is shaped into a fancy paper boat it will always have the same amount of mass.
Paper airplanes fly due to the principles of aerodynamics. When a paper airplane is thrown, the shape of its wings and the angle at which it is thrown create lift, which allows the airplane to stay in the air and glide. The force of gravity pulling the airplane down is counteracted by the lift generated by the wings, allowing the airplane to fly.
12 seconds
The wing of the paper airplane can make it fly far. For a glider, make a large wingspan and light, evenly balanced weight. Also, the wider the wings are the easier it will be to gain lift and the more narrower the wings are the harder it will be to stay in the air longer.
Because the real airplane is actually flying; the paper plane is just falling very slowly.
Paper airplanes work by utilizing the principles of aerodynamics. When thrown, the wings of the paper airplane create lift, which allows it to stay in the air. Factors that affect a paper airplane's flight performance include the design of the airplane, the weight distribution, the shape of the wings, and the force of the throw.
I am going to assume that aeroplane=airplane when I answer this. An airplane stays in the air by generating lift on its wings. As long as an airplane can generate sufficent lift it can stay in the air. However once the lift being generated falls below what is required for the plane to stay up... uh oh.
A kite is a toy that is kept in flight by the wind not far from the earth's surface. An airplane is a a motorized means of long distance transportation that has motors that make it possible to stay in flight at high altitudes.
