They reason is that when a carpet or any fabric is not cleaned for a long time, dust accumulates in small spaces between fibers. When we hit it with a stick, concussion waves are produced which force the dust particles out of it. That's why we see dust flying off.

Why does the dust particles of a carpet fall down when we hit the carpet with stick?

Hitting the carpet with a stick causes vibrations that dislodge the dust particles from the carpet fibers. The kinetic energy from the impact causes the dust particles to become airborne and then settle back down due to gravity.


You hit a wall with a stick the equal but opposite reaction is the wall push against you the stick pushes against you you push against the stick or the wall pushes against the stick?

The equal and opposite reaction is the wall pushing back against you. When you hit the wall with a stick, the force you exert on the wall is transferred to you through the stick, causing the wall to push back with an equal force. The stick simply transmits this force between you and the wall.


Do dust motes move when air particles hit them?

no, no more than you do, but they can be attracted by elecronic charges to television screens


A marble a textbook and a flaming stick are simultaneously dropped from a height of 10 feet if air resistance upon the falling objects is small enough that it can be neglected which will hit first?

All objects dropped from the same height will hit the ground at the same time, regardless of their mass or shape, as long as air resistance is negligible. Thus, the marble, textbook, and flaming stick will hit the ground simultaneously.


Do flies see in slow motion?

Flies do see in slow motion that is wuy they have time to run when you hit them... hit them in slow motion and you have not a 100 percent chance to kill it but a better chance to have then you would if you hit them fast.

What law of motion of newton in act of cleaning a carpet by beating with a stick involves?

The law of motion involved in cleaning a carpet by beating it with a stick is Newton's third law of motion, which states that for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. When you hit the carpet with the stick, the force from the stick pushes the carpet down, but the carpet also pushes back with an equal force, dislodging dirt and dust.


How do you beat carpets?

With a device called a carpet beater. You hang up the carpet and hit it repeatedly with the carpet beater to knock the dust out of it.


What is the application of newton's first law of motion?

1. In case of a spaceship when it is in space free from all gravitational forces, if suddenly the rockets are turned off, the spaceship will not have acceleration, but still it continues in motion with a uniform velocity. To bring it to the zero velocity we must give it a breaking force by turning on the rocket in the opposite direction. 2. When we hit a hanging carpet using a stick, we see dust particles coming out of the carpet. When the carpet is at rest along with the dust particles, we do not see the dust particles as they are hidden in the carpet at rest. When the carpet is hit with a stick, the carpet is motion with a sudden start. As the dust particles are at rest, they continue to in that state. So when we hit the carpet, the carpet moves and dust particles are seen as they were at the state of rest. 3. When some glass cups are placed on a table covered with silk tablecloth, and the table cloth is pulled fast off the table, the cups stand without falling or toppling down. When the cups and tablecloth were undisturbed, they were at rest without any motion. When the cloth was pulled suddenly, the cups continued in their previous state thereby resulting in the standing of cups. Pranoy Arun
