Well, yes! They have been doing it for centuries. For example, in Boston there was a mill dam built along what is now Causeway Street and used for turning paddlewheels. The tide came in and the wheels turned in one direction as the water poured into the lagoon; the tide went out and the wheels turned the other way as the lagoon emptied.

Spring Tides Are Extreme Tides And Neap Tides Are Weaker Tides.
They both occur twice a year... and both involve high tides and low tides...
Neap and spring tides are about 7 days apart.
moon effects tides...
When the tide come in, you catch and hold the water, and when the tide ebbs (runs out), the water can turn turbines and generate electricity. the tides go in and turn the turbine and the tides go out and turn the turbine. the turbine creates kinectic energy to create electricty.
Yes and no. Tides only come in 10 hrs a day. But it can generate a lot of electricity.
Tides are caused by the moon, so scientists can predict tides in advance from the moon's position relative to earth
generate electricity
eat me.
Tidal energy can be used to generate electricity.

Maybe
The tides in the ocean are created by the gravitational effects caused by the moon.This movement of water is converted to power by trapping the waters of the high tide and forcing them to flow through turbines to generate electricity.
Tides result from differences in the gravitational forces exerted at different points on the Earth's surface by another body (such as the Moon).
Both use the flow of water generate electricity. Hydroelectric uses the flow of water from a high point to a low point. (A damn). Tidal power uses the flow of ocean tides in and out.
