**Step-by-Step Solution:** 1. **Understanding Inertia**: Inertia is the property of an object to resist changes in its state of motion. An object at rest tends to stay at rest, and an object in motion tends to stay in motion unless acted upon by an external force. 2. **Situation Description**: When a carpet is beaten with a stick, the carpet is set into motion. The dust particles that are embedded in the carpet are initially at rest. 3. **Effect of Beating the Carpet**: When the stick hits the carpet, it exerts a force on the carpet, causing it to move. However, the dust particles inside the carpet do not immediately follow this motion because of their inertia. ...
