suction
Drawing force inward
Suction is the force created when air or liquid is removed from a space, causing surrounding matter to rush in to fill the vacuum.
A vacuum cleaner works by suction; so does drinking through a straw.
The verb means to remove by this force: The surgeon suctioned blood from the wound.
Anything that creates strong pull may be described as having suction: The mud had such suction I lost my boot.
