pull

A pull is a force that makes an object move towards something else. It is the opposite of a push. When you pull on an object, you are using your muscles to apply a force in the direction of the object. This force causes the object to move towards you.

Here are some examples of pull:

• You pull on a door to open it.
• You pull on a rope to help you climb a tree.
• You pull on a wagon to move it across the yard.
• You pull on a toy to make it move.

Pull is a force that can be used to move objects, but it can also be used to change the direction of an object's motion. For example, if you are pulling a wagon and it starts to move away from you, you can pull harder to stop it.
