When an object is moving through air or water, the air and water molecules must move aside. This creates a force that opposes motion—it’s called resistance or drag. Using this information, explain why the flat sheet of paper took longer to fall than the crumpled ball of paper.

Respuesta :

Answer:

this is because gravity is pulling both objects down to the ground and hence they are falling. Both objects have the same mass and weight but the resultant force of the paper ball is smaller than that of the unfolded paper. The unfolded paper has a larger surface area and so a larger force is acted upon it, meaning there is more air resistance. This shows that the paper ball falls faster than the unfolded paper.
