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!
