When you walk across dry sand you sink when you walk across wet sand you do not sink why?
As the dry sand is loosely packed/coupled with each other thus the substancial force which are required to hold each granual is less as compared to the wet sand. when the sand is wet the forces of attraction increases as the each granual of the sand is easily coupled increasing the substancial force. thus a person can walk over wet sand rather than on a dry sand
Is it true if you move in quick sand you will sink quicker?
No, the speed at which you sink in quicksand is determined by your body density and the viscosity of the sand, not by your movements. Struggling can actually make you sink faster due to increased agitation of the sand particles, causing you to sink deeper into it. It's best to remain calm and slowly try to spread your weight to increase your chances of floating.
Why is quick sand deeper than regular sand?
Quicksand is a mixture of sand, water, and clay that forms a substance with a lower viscosity than regular sand, causing objects or people to sink deeper in it. The increased water content in quicksand reduces the friction between sand particles, making it easier to sink in.
Why is it difficult to walk on sand if you are wearing pointed heels as compared to flat shoes?
Because flat shoes have a much wider base than pointed heels so they spread your weight out more, to you walk more on top of the sand, like snowshoes. Whereas pointed heels have a very narrow base that causes you to sink into the sand a bit more, making it a little like walking in quicksand.
Can you walk on quicksand?
I wouldn't recommend trying it, by definition. If you become trapped in quicksand the recommended action is to lie down as you will then float and it's supposedly possible to swim slowly out. Quicksand is just a sand / water mixture that may have an apparently firm surface.
Why is it difficult to walk with high heeled shoes on loose sand?
The high heels sink into the sand.
Why do you sink when you walk on sand dunes?
Sand dunes have loose and shifting particles that cannot support your weight evenly. When you walk on sand dunes, the grains of sand move and shift beneath your feet, causing you to sink. This sinking occurs because your weight presses down on the sand, causing it to compact and displace outwards.
When you walk across dry sand you sink when you walk across wet sand you do not sink why?

Why a camel walk easily on sand but it is difficult for a man to walk on sand though a camel is much heavier than a man?
Sand has a very low bearing capacity. Hence, your feet tend to sink into it.While walking, you have to continually 'dig' yourself out of the sand with every step you take.
How does Quick sand pulls us?
first of all quick sand does NOT pull you in you dont sink you can walk on it but if it did it would be ummm oh yeah its special sand it floats then when you stand in it it sinks to the bottom .
How can camels walk on loose sandy ground?
As a camel's foot is placed on the sand it splays out to cover a larger area. So they don't sink deeply in to soft sand.
We cannot walk comfortably on sand but camels can run in a desert easily?
Answer: It is because camel’s feet have large surface area, the force of their weight is distributed over a large area of sand. The pressure produced on sand is small and hence, a camel’s feet do not sink into the sand. On the other hand, a man’s feet have a small surface area, the force of their weight is distributed over a smaller area of sand. The force per unit area or pressure produced on sand is large in this case due to which a man’s feet sink into sand and it becomes difficult for him to walk on sand.
Why would a ball filled with sand would sink in water?
The sand puts weight on it and it makes in sink.
Why do cars sink in sand?
