Why do the dust particles move when a beam of sunlight enter the room?

The random motion of small particles in the air is called Brownian motion (named after the botanist Robert Brown). This motion is caused by the collisions of the particles with the molecules of the gases making up the air.

What are minute particles called?
dust particles
Who is the scholars suggested the earths origin from gas and dust particles?
schmid
What is another word for granules?
Dust, particles, fragments, flakes, grime...
What type of a mixture is a sandstorm?
A sandstorm is a mixture of sand particles, dust and wind. Heavier sand particles are found closer to the ground and lighter dust particles higher up. A violent sandstorm can be tens of kilometers wide, several hundred meters tall and can last for several days.
What causes particles of a solid to become arranged in a random manner?
I would guess that you are referring to Brownian motion. When a fine dust is spread on the surface of water you can observe the motion of the dust particles through a microscope as they are struck by water molecules.
Why do you see tiny shining particles in the beam of sunlight in a dark room?
Those mysterious sparkles are dust particles in the air.
When ray of sunlight entres a dark room its straight path become visible because of dust particles?
True, because you can't see "a beam of light", only what it illuminates.
What happens when a comets dust particles enter our atmosphere?
it turns to dust.
When a ray of sunlight enters a dark room its straight path become visible because of dust particles hanging in the air?
No, ghosts are standing in the way and allowing the light to create a physical beam.
Why do dust particles in a bean of sunlight appear to sparkle?
Because the sunlight is reflecting off them at different points.
What can cause a change in climate due to dust particles?
dust particles in the atmosphere can block sunlight reaching the surface of the planet causing temp to drop.
What causes dust to be seen when sunlight shines through a room?
Dust particles while small reflect light, thenceforth you are able to see individual particles as they turn through the air.
Microscopic particles such as dust and ash that can enter the nose mouth and lungs are called?
Particulates
What is represent dust in the atmosphere?
Dust particles are an important component of the atmosphere because they affect us in several ways. They often provide nuclei on which raindrops can form. They can cause breathing difficulties especially in asthmatic people. They also affect the amount of solar radiation which reaches the surface. Volcanic eruptions throw so much dust into the air that they can cause global cooling.
What are the small glowing particles in laser beam?
usually dust of some kind, occasionally water vapor, reflecting the laser light. I am assuming, of course, the part of the beam outside the excitation tube.
Dust particles exist in what phase?
Dust particles are solids.
What phase do dust particles exist?
Dust particles are tiny particles of solid material.
