Drop a paper, a piece of thermopol, and a piece of plastic from a height of 10-15 feet. Note the time for each object to hit the ground. Why does the paper take more time than thermopol and thermopol more than the plastic piece? Make the paper to fell down in such a way that it should hit the ground before all of them. How did it happen? Explain.

It took the paper longer because is has a lot of surface area that air can resist to and push up, making it float slowly to the floor rather then drop quickly. The piece of plastic is also more aerodynamic than the piece of paper because the air wont have as much surface area to resist to.

We folded it into a paper airplane. We did this so that it will be more aerodynamic.

Correct me if I’m wrong.
