What class of lever does a oar of a boat fall in?
third class! :)
When you row a boat on the pond why does the boat go forward when you are pulling the oars towards you?
When you row a boat on a pond, you are usually facing the back of the boat. Also, the oars are usually attached in the middle of the oar to the side of the boat. So if you pull the handle of the oar towards the front of the boat (towards you when rowing), the paddle of the oar is moving towards the back of the boat (the oar acts like a lever-arm). To move a boat forward, you actually have to move water backward! It's pushing water back that really moves the boat forward. So, when you pull the oar towards you, the paddle moves towards the back of the boat, and that pushes water towards the back of the boat, pushing the boat the opposite direction, which is forward! Just make sure to turn around once in a while because you're not looking where you are going!

How a paddle wheel works?
On a boat, a paddle wheel is turned by pistons. The pistons are powered with a steam engine. If the paddle wheel is meant to generate energy, the wheel turns as water flows over it, then the wheel turns other mechanical parts to do functions like grind corn, or power machines.
Why are levers useful?
A lever is a simple machine that changes the distance the force is applied over. It is helpful by since the force is applied over distance you can lift things. One example of this machine is a seesaw and a boat paddle. If we did not have this machine on a seesaw we would stay balance. Levers are devices that increase the force you use them with. Each lever has three main parts: the fulcrum, resistance arm, and effort arm.
