Where do the water bulges occur on earth during the tides?
bulges of water in the ocean are called high tides.
What are the bulges of water in the ocean called?
These are basically the "tides" of the Earth, as water in the oceans is spun away from the spinning Earth, but attracted by the Moon and the Sun. The varying topography of the ocean floors determines how these form actual tides.
The area between bulges of water in the ocean?
The area between bulges of water in the ocean is called a trough. There are generally a couple of these in between: one that is usually high and the other one that is usually low.
How many tidal bulges move around earth daily?
Two. Tides result from the two tidal bulges that "move" around the earth daily as a result of the gravitational attractions of the moon and sun and the rotation of the earth.
How many many tides per day?
2

Tides refer to bulges in ocean water?
yes its true

Why the highest tides occur during a new moon or a full moon?
it is when the gravitational pull of the moon is the strongest so it creates huge bulges of the ocean water
Why the ocean bulges on the sides of the Earth?
The ocean bulge and the tides are caused by attraction from the Moon.
What are ocean bulges called?
Bulges in the ocean are called tides. These are the rising and falling motions of the sea, caused by the gravitational pull of the moon and sun on the waters of the Earth.
Does the moon affect life on earth land?
It only affects the tides and waves. The gravitational pull of the moon causes the rise and fall of ocean tides. The moon's gravitational pull causes two bulges of water on the Earth's oceans-one where ocean waters face the moon and the pull is strongest and one where ocean waters face away from the moon and the pull is weakest. Both bulges cause high tides. These are high tides. As the Earth rotates, the bulges move around it, one always facing the moon, the other directly opposite. The combined forces of gravity, the Earth's rotation, and other factors usually cause two high tides and two low tides each day.
Bulges of water in the ocean are?
That's a good way to describe the tides. You can think of a permanent bulge in the ocean, pointing toward the moon, with the earth rotating inside the bulge.
What is the pull of the moon on earths tidal bulge causing?
The pull of the Moon - and, to a lesser degree, of the Sun - causes "tidal bulges". These bulges of water cause the high tides on Earth. The Moon's gravitational pull on the bulge of water nearest to the Moon, causes the Earth's rotation to very gradually slow down, due to frictional forces. Finally, (because of the need to conserve "angular momentum") it causes the Moon to gradually move away from Earth.
How many tidal bulges move around earth daily?
Two. Tides result from the two tidal bulges that "move" around the earth daily as a result of the gravitational attractions of the moon and sun and the rotation of the earth.
What is the area between bulges of water from tides?
it is called an irrelevant spit. it is called this because it is in between bulges and is basicly what you call irrelevant
