Aerodynamics is essentially how efficient something can move through the air. If an object is MORE aerodynamic, then it will travel with less resistance, and vice versa.

The same applies for water, if you try to push a large flat object through water, it will encounter resistance and be difficult to move. For example, the palm of your hand with the fingers closed.

Because each force has an equal opposite, you push the water with your hand and it pushes back, propelling you forward and the water backwards.

This is less efficient if you try it with your hand pointing sideways. Why? It is more aerodynamic that way.

How is science related to swimming?

~There is an entire biomechanical science to swimming. it is mostly related to arm motion. the better teqnique you have and the faster you move your arms... it is scientifically proven to make you go faster. ~Also....swimming has to do with chemistry. When swimming, your are moving through H2O and maybe some other chemicals too(elements) Check out the details and maybe more of a correct answer at: http://swimmingtechnology.com/Aquanex.htm
