How does a boat operate?
The part of a boat that is under water has the same volume as the amount of water that weighs the same as the boat and everything in it. That is why a boat goes lower into the water whenever somebody boards. Propulsion is acheived by taking advantage of Newton's third law of motion: for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction. To move the boat in a certain direction, water is pushed in the opposite direction. Most boats use a propeller to push the water, but it can also be pushed by oars, a water wheel, a jet, etc.

So water went in the basement and It the water went up to every floor and boat got so heavy. And when the boat was rising up it go SO heavy that it snapped in halfexample: Also a rock can sink. when you throw a rock in the water it sinks because the rock is soooo heavy

Can a swimmer hear the boat sound under the water?
I live on a lake and swim quite often. When you go underwater and a boat goes by a 1/4 mile away, you can distinctly hear the prop and engine whirring. Also, the boat sounds much closer and louder than it does above water because sound travels better in water than in air. This is because it is more dense than air.
