    Question

    Which of Newton's laws of motion explains the act of

    removing dust from a carpet by beating it?
    A First Law of Motion Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B Second Law of Motion Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C Third Law of Motion Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D None of these Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    The First Law of Motion, also known as the law of inertia, explains this action. It states that an object at rest will stay at rest, and an object in motion will stay in motion with the same speed and in the same direction unless acted upon by an external force. In this case, the dust stays at rest until the carpet is beaten, causing it to be displaced.
