Question

When a carpet is beaten with a stick, dust comes out of it. Explain it?

Answer 1

The dust particles were at rest when carpet is beaten with a stick they come in motion and comes out

Answer 2

Inertia of an object tends to resist any change in its state of rest or state of motion. When a carpet is beaten with a stick, then the carpet comes to motion. But, the dust particles try to resist their state of rest. According to Newton’s first law of motion, the dust particles stay in a state of rest, while the carpet moves. Hence, the dust particles come out of the carpet.

Hope this helps
