Objects Fall Backwards

The speed of a falling object depends on many factors. Some of these factors are air resistance, shape, and weight (PhysLink). For example, a piece of construction paper, crumbled up, with some weight attached, and no air resistance will fall faster than a piece of printer paper, flat, with no weight attached, and wind pushing against it will. That can be figured out with simple common sense. The only two factors that really matter in this instance is the weight of the paper and the amount of air resistance. However, it takes a lot more thinking than just weight and resistance. A piece of paper that has zero air resistance against it will fall downwards faster than a piece of paper with air resistance acting on it (Physlink). In this case

Gravity is the force that makes objects fall downward (NASA). The amount of weight usually makes the object fall faster because of gravity. However, the shape can push against gravity and make the object fall slower (NASA).Gravity and air resistance work against each other (NASA). Heavier objects most always fall faster than lighter objects (Wired). The only way a lighter object will fall faster than a heavier object is if the shape is working against gravity (Wired). The reason the heavier object most always falls faster is because heavier objects gain velocity faster than lighter objects (Wired). Of course that is if the shape is working with gravity and not against it. The only two factors that could affect the speed of the object falling is shape and resistance (Wired). If human pressure is added to the force of an object’s decent, that could also make the object speed up and slow down (SchoolforChampions). The reason for this is because of shape. Shape is a very important factor because it can affect the speed very much (SchoolforChampions). For example, if a paper ball is thrown downward it will reach the ground faster than a paper ball only dropped will. The reason for this is because human force is acting on the paper ball. The human force is making the velocity increase faster than it could with no human force (SchoolforChampions). Applied force can also decelerate an object depending on

The first step to making paper is choosing out the tree. Paper companies use coniferous trees to make paper (Hunker). The second step is to cut down the tree and bring it to the paper making factory or mill (Wisconsin Paper Council). Once the wood arrives it is cut down more, debarked, and put into a chipping machine (Wisconsin Paper Council). Next the wood goes to a mechanical pulping process, then chemical pulping process, hydrapulper, and screen and cleaning machine (Wisconsin Paper Council). The last step is to put the thinned downed wood into a paper making machine (Wisconsin Paper Council). The process for making paper takes time and many
