Water resistance on boats can be reduced by ensuring the boat is as streamlined as possible. This will allow the water to flow past it much more easily, thus reducing resistance.

How does streamlining reduce water Resistance?
no
Can Water can decrease a substance resistance to the flow of electricity?
Reduce the temperature of the conductor.
How do you resist air resistance?
You don't "resist" it but you "reduce" it. For example, many vehicles and projectiles are made in a streamline design to reduce air resistance.
What is the purpose of making a hovercraft?
The purpose of making a hovercraft is to reduce the friction and drag that boats experience on the water. This makes the craft faster, more efficient, and more fun!
What are the forces of a plane slowing down to land?
Reduce the thrust, air resistance will reduce the velocity, lift will diminish, gravity will reduce the height.
Why the boats usually have pointed bows?
A boat has a pointed bow to reduce the resistance of the water as the boat moves forward.
How does streamlining reduce water Resistance?
no
What affect does streamlining have on forces?
It tends to reduce air (or water) resistance.
Do swim costumes reduce resistance and drag in the water?
resistance created by a fluid to forward motion. The resistance met by a swimmer in their forward progress caused by the water is passive drag;
Can Water can decrease a substance resistance to the flow of electricity?
Reduce the temperature of the conductor.
Does resistance affect boats?
UPTHRUST
Water can decrease a substance's resistance to the flow of electricity?
A item's resistance is not able to be changed with water. Water on an object or absorbed by an object can change the overall resistance of an object by putting in parallel the resistance of the water itself. If you were to use very clean water that was deionized and soaked your device, you would see no resistance change.
Why are vechiles streamlined?
To reduce air (or water) resistance. This allows them to go faster, or alternately, to save fuel.
How does the design of large boats allow them to float?
no design matters. it is the force of water resistance and upthrust that are level that allows any boat to float
What type of shipbuilding technique did the vikings use?
They used overlapping planks of wood to build their boats to minimize water resistance. It was very effective.
When you stop boats from rowing it comes fro rest whyy?
Friction. A number of different effects slow it down. Boats essentially have 'wavemaking' resistance, 'form' resistance and 'skin friction' resistance. The latter increases as a proportion of the total resistance as speed reduces to near zero.
How do you resist air resistance?
You don't "resist" it but you "reduce" it. For example, many vehicles and projectiles are made in a streamline design to reduce air resistance.
