Question:

You are standing on one end of a light wooden raft that has floated 3 m away from the pier. If the raft is 6 m long by 2.5 m wide and you are standing on the raft end nearest to the pier, can you propel the raft back toward the pier where a friend is standing with a pole and hook trying to reach you? You have no oars. Make suggestions of what to do without getting yourself wet.
