    Show the answer

    • The sail
    • The deck
    • The anchor
    Show the answer

    The rudder — The rudder is a flat piece at the back of a boat under the water, and turning it makes the boat steer left or right.

  3. Q3 Why do boats and ships float instead of sinking?

    • Their shape pushes away enough water to hold them up
    • They are filled with helium
    • They are lighter than air
    • Magnets pull them upward
    Show the answer

    Their shape pushes away enough water to hold them up — Boats float because their shape pushes aside water, and the water pushes back up with enough force to hold them.
