Leeway is caused by the wind pushing against the side of a boat, which can create a sideways drift. This effect is influenced by factors such as wind speed, the boat's size and shape, and the angle of the sail. As the wind exerts force on the hull, it can cause the boat to move off its intended course, necessitating adjustments in steering to compensate for this drift. Additionally, the current and wave conditions can also contribute to leeway, further affecting the boat's trajectory.
What else can I help you with?
Why is it the boat is not sinking if the earth has a gravity?
This is simply because of the weight of the water versus the weight of the boat. The water push upward with a force equal to the weight of the water the boat push away. It is self stabilizing. The deeper the boat lie, the more water it push away, and the more will the water push back at the boat. Of course, if you fill the boat, then it will most likely sink, but here again it depends on what material the boat is made of. If the total volume of materials in boat weigh less than equal volume of water, the boat will still be floating.
You push the boat down what can you feel?
Your question is unclear but if you push the boat down you will feel resistance due to the buoyancy.
What are examples of unbalance?
I push the boat but the boat can't move.
Why is a boat faster in cold conditions?
There is more wind to push the boat
How do you propel a toy boat?
you push it
When you move out of the boat it is pushed back why?
When you "push" your body out of the boat you also push the boat away from the dock. The law simply put is: "For every action there is an opposite and equal reaction"
Why does a boatman push the water backwards?
This will push the boat forward, by Newton's Third Law.
How is energy transferred from your finger to the paper boat?
When you push the paper boat with your finger, your finger applies a force to the boat and transfers energy to it. This energy causes the boat to move forward due to the force applied, propelling it across the water.
How can balloons float?
Helium is lighter than air and this causes the air to push it up. (just as water pushes up things that are lighter than it i.e. a boat) This is called buoyancy
How do you get the boat in the water in Lego city?
Destroy everything around it and if something falls out, build it onto the back of the boat. It should make one of them push things. Just go behind it and push it, then the boat should go into the water.
Can sharp rocks propel a boat?
no,you can not propel a boat because propel means to push or drive forwards
What to do if you run aground in an outboard boat for freeing your vessel?
Raise the motor, get out and push the boat to deeper water.
