Question

_______ is used to separate a mixture of wheat and husk.​

Answer 1

Answer:

Winnowing

Explanation:

Winnowing is a process of separating grains from husks. In this process, the mixture of grain and husk is dropped from a height. The heavier grain particles fall down straight to the ground while the lighter husk particles are taken away by wind and are collected separately at a small distance from the pile of grains.

Hope so it is clear to you !!

Answer 2

Both grain and husk are solids. Grain weighs more than husk. The husk is the seed's outer covering.

Explanation:

Winnowing

• It's a technique for separating two solids with different weights. The heavier component is separated from the lighter with the help of wind in this process.
• When the jar containing the combination is vigorously shook, the lighter solid particles, which in this case are husks, are permitted to fall down. The lighter grain is left behind as the husk floats with the breeze.
