Definition: An act of pulling (applying force)
Alright class, settle down and let’s take a look! You’ve got a good start with that definition – “an act of pulling, applying force.” But let's dig a little deeper, shall we? Think about it like this: When you pull a wagon, what are you doing? You’re using your muscles to move something towards you, right? It's a movement, a stretch, a tug! We use "pull" in lots of ways – You pull yourself up on the monkey bars with glee. A rope is used to pull a boat out to sea. Even when you pull your socks down tight, it’s all about that pulling force! Essentially, "pull" means to exert a force to move something closer to yourself. It's about applying strength and moving with a directional push. Do you have any questions? Let's talk about different kinds of pulls – like a gentle tug versus a really strong heave!
