Question

40 What happens when sand and powdered leaves are being fallen in the same place?

Solution

It happens according to the winnowing process.

  • Winnowing is used to separate heavier and lighter components of a mixture by wind or blowing air.
  • Because sand is heavier than powdered leaves, powdered leaves are lighter. Winds separate them when we fall them in the same spot because sand is reached vertically and leaves are blown. Winnowing is the term for this procedure.
