ficulty being to explain II in or
binary terms. What seems about
the clearest statement that 1
have seen is that of the English
physicist Watson-no relation 10

HOW WATSON EXPLAINS 1T.
Watson uses the instance OF
horse towing canalboat, In
which the elements OF the prob
lem are the same as In the case
OF the man pushing a cart except
that a pull Is substituted for a
push. The forward pull exerted
by the horse on the tow.rope IL
exactly equal to the backward
pull exerted by the tow.rope on
the horse. How then can they
move?
"What we must remember"
saws Watson, sis that. as far as
their relative positions are con-
cerned, the horse and the boat
are at rest, and form a single
body Tor system), and the action
and reaction between them. due
TO the tension on the rope, must
lie equal and opposite, for other
wise there would be relative mo-
ton, one with respect TO the
other. (And now comes the cru
cial point)
THE horse obtains the necessary
purchase to move both itself and
the boat where it's feet touch the
ground. At these points the horses
hoofs exert a force which has a
component in the backward direc-
ton, the corresponding reaction OF
the ground having a component in
the forward direction: and II is this
component which produces the
motion Of the horse and the boat. >"
