No Neap tides are when the sun,earth, and moon form a right angle. This makes the the water on earth be pulled towards the sun and the moon. causing the tides to be very low. Spring tides are when tides are the highest because the earth,sun,and moon are in a line,causing very high tides.
There are high tides on the side of Earth facing the moon.
Spring tides are stronger because they occur when the sun moon and earth are lined up in a straight line causing a stronger force on earth's tides.
Due to the gravitational pull on the earth from the moon and the sun. The moon pulls the water from the earth towards it and so does the sun. Low tides are called Neap tides and are low because the pull from the sun and the moon cancel each other out (it would be much easier to explain using a diagram) High tides are spring tides and are high because the sun and the moon are alligned, creating a strong force.
If the Moon were closer to the Earth, the high tides would be higher, and the low tides would be lower.

The dominant force causing Earth's tides is the gravity of the moon as it revolves around us.
moon
It has an influence on the earth's water, causing the ebb and flow of tides.
This is happening because of tides, which happen in the opposite places on Earth at the same time. The magnetic field on the Earth and the Moon are pulling towards each other, causing the tides to rise in one place and fall in another.
The Earth. The Earth and Moon are bound together by gravity and the Earth's tides (caused by the Moon) are accelerating the Moon and slowing the spin of the Earth. This means that the Moon is slowly getting further and further away from Earth.
Earth's tides are determined by the moon's ________________ pull.
Absolutely true. Proof? The moon moves across the sky at night (and day) dragging the Earth's oceans with it, causing tides.
Tides are caused by the gravitational pull of the Moon. Full moons are notorious for causing large waves and Tsunamis that pull in the direction of the moon.
The gravity of the moon and sun causes the earth's tides. The greatest tides are called 'spring' tides which occur when the earth, moon and sun are aligned. The moon has the greatest effect on our tides because of its proximity.
There are high tides on the side of Earth facing the moon.
