Why you put snow shoes on a snow plow?

Snow shoes are generally used for gravel or interlock surfaces. You wouldn't want a plows cutting edge on gravel, otherwise you'd be scooping that up with the snow too. The shoes help the plow float above the gravel, clearing most of the snow while leaving the gravel untouched. However, once a shoe meets a curb, the shoes don't last very long!


How can you separate sawdust from gravel?

Place the sawdust and gravel mixture in water and stir. Let it sit for a time - the gravel will fall to the bottom and the sawdust will float on the top. Density of gravel is greater than water and density of sawdust (wood) is less than water. The layer of sawdust can be carefully removed by skimming it off water's surface or by pouring gravel and sawdust through a series of mesh screens of varying size (the screens can be used with dry or wet mixture)I would use the difference in density of the two materials. A simple method would be to have a stream of the mixed materials poured from a higher elevation to a lower, with a stream of air blowing across the stream. Being less dense, the sawdust will be blown to one side, the gravel will drop straight down. Of course, you COULD just drop the mixed materials into water- sawdust floats, gravel does not. Sawdust will also burn, where gravel will not. Roasting the gravel at a heat above the combustion point of sawdust will cause it to ignite, burning the sawdust away, leaving gravel. Of course, if you have plenty of time, just turn a few termites loose on the mix- they will eat wood- but not gravel!


What is the density of gravel sized 2 mm to 6 mm?

There are 1,000 mm3 / cm3. There are 1,000,000 mg / kg. Put it into the formula, and you get 2000 mg/mm3.
