Have your students ever wondered what causes a paddle boat to move in the water? Winding the paddle causes it to turn and hit the water (force). When the paddle pushes against the water, the water pushes back, causing the boat to move (reaction force). A paddleboat moves when the rubber band’s (potential) energy is converted into motion (kinetic) energy causing the paddle to spin. Students can create different shaped paddles and to see how they affect boats’ speed.
