"If a hanging carpet is beaten with a stick, dust particles begin to emerge." This phenomenon is exemplified by newton's First Law of motion. 

The inertia of an object tends to resist any change in its state of rest or state of motion. When a carpet is beaten with a stick, then it comes in motion. But, the dust particles try to resist a change in their state of rest. According to Newton's first law of motion, the dust particles stay in a state of rest, while the carpet moves. Hence, the dust particle comes out of the carpet due to inertia.
