उत्तर
When you step ashore from a stationary boat, it tends to leave the shore this is because of newton's third law of motion which states that, 'Every action has an equal and opposite reaction'.
In order to get out of the boat we exert a force (action) on the board of the boat. This creates a force (reaction) which enables us to step out of the boat.
At the same instant, the boat tends to leave the shore due to the force exerted by us (i.e., action).
For the safety of the passengers the boatman ties the boat to the pole on the shore so that it does not move away.
