2] HOW IS DUST USEFUL TO US? Many of us believe that dust is harmful to us but this is only one side of the picture.Dust is also useful to us. But before we go through the uses of dust, let us find out what dust is, and how it is formed. Every solid substance is composed of very small particles. When a substance disintegrates, its small particles scatter and they form dust particles.For example, if we break a brick into small pieces, it produces small particles in the form of dust. There are a number of ways by which dust is formed. Smokegenerated by the burning of coal, wood,petrol, etc. also produces dust.  Dead plant and animal matter, sea salt, desert sand, volcanic ash, etc. also produce dust particles. These dust particles mix with air, which are carried from one place to another.Thus, particles from the Earth's surface fly in the air in the form of dust. Did you know that dust helps in rainfall?

According to this law, whenever a body is placed in water, two forces act upon it - the weight of the body acting downwards and the buoyant force of water acting upwards. If the weight of the body is equal to or less than the upward thrust of water, the body floats. In simpler words, a lighter object always floats on water. On the other hand, if the weight of a body is more than the weight of the water displaced by it, it sinks. This phenomenon is same as a piece of word floating on the surface of water. Since the weig...
