Will the flight of a paper airplane be altered if the weight changes?
Yes, weight may affect a paper airplane by increasing its mass. This may alter its glide ratio and change its wing loading.
What is the mass of a airplane?
The mass of a paper airplane is equal to the sheet of paper it is constructed out of, plus any additional materials.
Does the mass of an airplane affect its flight?
Yes.
How does the mass of piece of paper compare with the mass of the paper airplane?
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.

Which flies paper airplane or foil airplane?
Paper, because it is much lighter, and a foil airplane will take up much more mass.
Does the mass of a paper airplane affect how far it will travel?
oesyes it d
A paper airplane with mass 0.1 kg is flying 1.5 m above the ground with a speed of 2 ms. What is the total mechanical energy of the paper airplane?
The total mechanical energy of the paper airplane can be calculated as the sum of its kinetic energy (KE) and potential energy (PE). KE = 0.5 * mass * velocity^2 and PE = mass * gravity * height. Since the paper airplane is moving, it has kinetic energy. The total mechanical energy is KE + PE.
How does drag affect a paper airplane?
Drag effects paper airplane just as it affects anything else that moves. It is either parasitic or induced on paper airplanes. Drag may reduce a paper airplanes speed and/or range.
Does inertia exist on a flying airplane?
Yes, inertia exists on a flying airplane. Inertia is the tendency of an object to resist changes in its motion, so even though the airplane is moving at a constant speed in the air, it still has the inertia of its mass. This property is important in understanding how the airplane accelerates, decelerates, or changes direction during flight.
What is the forward thrust for an airplane?
A fixed wing aircraft generates forward thrust when air is pushed in the direction opposite to flight. It is proportional to the mass of the airstream.
What force pulls an airplane toward the earth and is related to the mass of the airplane?
Gravity
