* Force: A push or pull that can change an object's motion. Think of a rock being pushed by a hand, or a boat being pulled by a rope.
* Moving water: Has energy due to its motion. This energy can be transferred to other objects, causing a force.
Examples:
* Water hitting a dam: The water exerts a force on the dam, pushing it.
* River current pushing a boat: The water's motion exerts a force on the boat, propelling it.
* Water eroding a riverbank: The water's motion exerts a force on the bank, gradually wearing it away.
Key Takeaway: Moving water itself isn't a force, but it can apply a force to objects due to its energy.
