Answer:

The falling force of the water pushes the paddles, rotating a wheel.This creates a special channel known as a mill race from the pond to the waterwheel.

Step-by-step explanation:

A waterwheel is a type of device that takes advantage of flowing or falling water to generate power by using a set of paddles mounted around a wheel.
